What does 1 Chronicles 6:18 mean?

1 Chronicles 6:18 identifies four sons of Kohath: Amram, Izhar, Hebron, and Uzziel. The verse places their family lines within the larger family of Levi, helping readers see how the different branches are related.

After naming Kohath among Levi’s sons, the family record moves down one generation to Kohath’s children. Amram is one of these four brothers; the passage later traces a line through him to Aaron, Moses, and Miriam.
