Quick answer
Aijalon and Gath Rimmon with their pasturelands were given to them as well. The Kohathite allotment continues.
Overview
The Chronicler records more towns granted to the Kohathite families, completing their portion in the central region. Each city with pastureland supplied home and sustenance for the Levites who held no farmland. This faithful provision reflects God's care for those devoted to his worship and instruction.
