All 13 cities with their pasturelands were for the priests, the descendants of Aaron.
Aaron’s sons were given: Hebron (a city of refuge), Libnah and its pasturelands, Jattir, Eshtemoa and its pasturelands,
Anathoth with its pasturelands, and Almon with its pasturelands — four cities.
The allotted cities to the remaining clans of Kohath’s descendants, who were Levites, came from the tribe of Ephraim.
