The fifteenth lot fell to Bilgah and the sixteenth to Immer as part of David's larger act of dividing the priesthood into twenty-four courses at the time Solomon was placed on the throne. The work was done with a full and accurate record, with each course thoroughly organized under its chief. It followed a studied plan of assigning special duties to the men best fitted for them.
Each of the twenty-four courses was appointed to come to Jerusalem twice a year to give one week to the ministry of the sanctuary. This ordering of the courses belonged to the perfecting of the organization of every branch of the ministration of the priests and Levites, together with the civil officers and the army.
