1 Chronicles 25:17

15 the eighth to Jeshaiah, his sons, and his brothers—12 in all;

16 the ninth to Mattaniah, his sons, and his brothers—12 in all;

the tenth to Shimei, his sons, and his brothers—12 in all;

18 the eleventh to Azarel, his sons, and his brothers—12 in all;

19 the twelfth to Hashabiah, his sons, and his brothers—12 in all;

Here the Bible tells a story about someone else. Ask yourself what it can say to us today. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
