ITHAMAR.The fourth and youngest son of Aaron and Elisheba (Exo_6:23 etc.); consecrated priest (Exo_28:1 ff.); forbidden to mourn for Nadab and Abihu (Lev_10:6), or to leave the Tent of Meeting (Lev_10:7); afterwards entrusted by Moses with priestly duties (Lev_10:12 ff.) and rebuked by him for neglect (Lev_10:16 ff.); set over the Gershonites and the Merarites in connexion with the service of the Tent of Meeting (Num_4:21-33; Num_7:7 f.; cf. also Exo_38:21); ancestor of Eli (cf. 1Ki_2:27 with 1Ch_24:3; Jos. [Note: Josephus.] Ant. VIII. i. 3). The family in Davids time was only half the size of Eleazars (1Ch_24:4). It was represented among the returned exiles (Ezr_8:2).

Aaron's youngest son (Exo_6:23). With Eleazar the elder he succeeded to the priestly offices vacated by the death of Nadab and Abihu, which he and Eleazar were forbidden to mourn (Exo_28:1; Exo_28:40; Exo_28:48; Lev_10:1-2; Lev_10:6-7; Num_3:3-4; 1Ch_24:2). Ithamar superintended the Gershonites who had charge of the curtains and hangings, and Merari who had charge of the pillars, Cords, and boards, on the march (Exo_38:21; Num_4:21-33). Eleazar's family and chief men were more numerous than those of Ithamar. The high priesthood in Eli's person (probably on account of the high qualities for which he was made judge) passed to the line of Ithamar, but reverted to Eleazar's line in Zadok, because of Abiathar's share in Adonijah's rebellion; thus the prophecy against Eli was fulfilled (1Sa_2:31-35; 1Sa_3:12-14; 1Ki_2:26-27; 1Ki_2:35). (See ABIATHAR; ELI.)

Ith'amar. (land of palms). The youngest son of Aaron. Exo_6:23. (B.C. 1491). After the death of Nadab and Abihu, Lev_10:1, Eleazar and Ithamar were appointed to succeed to their places in the priestly office. Exo_28:1; Exo_28:40; Exo_28:43; Num_3:3-4; 1Ch_24:2.
In the distribution of services, belonging to the Tabernacle, and its transport on the march of the Israelites, the Gershonites and the Merarites were placed, under the superintendence of Ithamar. Exo_38:21; Num_4:21-33. The high priesthood passed into the family of Ithamar, in the person of Eli, but for what reason we are not informed.

Aaron's fourth son, Exo_6:23. There is no probability that he ever exercised the high priesthood. He and his sons continued in the rank of simple priests, till this dignity came into his family in the person of Eli.
Biblical and Theological Dictionary by Richard Watson
PRINTER 1849.
When Aaron and his four sons established Israels priestly order, Aaron became the high priest and his sons were the priests who assisted him. Ithamar was the youngest of the four sons (Exo_28:1-4).
After the death of the two older sons, Eleazar and Ithamar received additional responsibilities. Eleazar, the senior of the two, had overall control of the Levites (Num_3:32), but Ithamar had specific responsibility for two of the three family divisions within the Levites (Num_4:28; Num_4:33). He had earlier supervised the building of the tabernacle (Exo_38:21), and now he was the chief overseer of its maintenance (Num_4:24-33).

ith?a-mar (איתמר, 'ı̄thāmār, ?land? or ?island of palms?: Gesenius; or ?father of Tamar,? אי, 'ı̄, being perhaps for אבי, 'ăbhı̄̌: Cook in Encyclopedia Biblica - though both derivations are uncertain): The 4th son of Aaron (Exo_6:23; Exo_28:1; 1Ch_6:3), Eleazar being the 3rd son, Nadab and Abihu the 1st and 2nd sons. While Nadab and Abihu were prematurely cut off for offering strange fire before the Lord (Lev_10:1, Lev_10:2; Num_3:4; Num_26:61), and Eleazar was appointed chief of the tribe of Levi (Exo_6:23, Exo_6:25) and ultimately succeeded Aaron (Exo_28:1), Ithamar was made the treasurer of the offerings for the Tabernacle (Exo_38:21), and superintendent of the Gershonites and Merarites in the service of the Tabernacle (Num_4:28, Num_4:33). In the time of Eli the high-priesthood had come to be in his family, but how, and whether before Eli's day or first in Eli's person, is not told and need not be conjectured. W. R. Smith in Encyclopedia Biblica (art. ?Eli?), on the strength of 1Sa_2:27, 1Sa_2:28, holds that the priesthood was originally in Eli's line; but the words ?the house of thy father? do not necessarily mean only the house of Ithamar, but may, and most probably do, refer to Aaron and his descendants, of whom Ithamar was one. Nor does the cutting off of Eli's family from the priesthood and the setting in their place of ?a faithful priest,? who should do everything according to Yahweh's will and walk before Yahweh's anointed forever, find its complete fulfillment in the deposition of Abiathar or Ahimelech, his son, and the installation of Zadok in the time of Solomon (1Ki_2:35; 1Ch_29:22; see ZADOK). A descendant of Ithamar, Daniel by name, is mentioned among the exiles who returned from Babylon (Ezr_8:2).

Ith?amar (palm-coast), fourth son of Aaron. He was consecrated to the priesthood along with his brothers (Exo_6:23; Num_3:2-3). Nothing is individually recorded of him, except that the property of the tabernacle was placed under his charge (Exo_38:21), and that he superintended all matters connected with its removal by the Levitical sections of Gershon and Merari (Num_4:28). The sacred utensils and their removal were entrusted to his elder brother Eleazar. Ithamar, with his descendants, occupied the position of common priests till the high-priesthood passed into his family in the person of Eli, under circumstances of which we are ignorant. Abiathar, whom Solomon deposed, was the last high-priest of that line; and the pontificate then reverted to the elder line of Eleazar in the person of Zadok (1Ki_2:27).
