This week, Dr. Mark Leuchter joins Jordan Jones to discuss one of the Hebrew Bible's most famous tribes: The Levites. Who were were Levites? Where did they come from? Why were they chosen to be priests? What was the role of the Levites in ancient Israelite society? Join us as we walk through the history, origins, and identity of the Levites.
