Specifically, it refers to a Hebrew elegy chanted traditionally on the Ninth of Ab. The Jerusalem Bible refers to Isaiah 47 as a qinah or "lament for Babylon". A. W.

The Kohathites were one of the three main divisions among the Levites in Biblical times, the other two being the Gershonites and the Merarites. The Bible claims that the Kohathites were all descended from the eponymous Kohath, a son of Levi, although some biblical scholars regard this as a postdictional metaphor providing an aetiology of the connectedness of the clan to others in the Israelite confederation. Although the Aaronids are described as part of the Kohathites, the text strongly differentiates between the Aaronids and the other Kohathites.
