📚 Contexto Histórico
This occurred during King Jehoshaphat's reign over Judah (around 870-848 BC) as part of his judicial reforms. He was establishing a formal court system in the capital city, separate from the local judges he had appointed throughout the kingdom. The Levites were the priestly tribe, and the 'chief of the fathers' were respected family clan leaders who would have been well-versed in Jewish law and customs.
