Korahites - That portion of the Kohathites that descended from Korah. (1.) They were an important branch of the singers of the Kohathite division (2 Chronicles 20:19). There are eleven psalms (Ps. 42 - 49; Psalms 84:1; Psalms 85:1; Psalms 87:1; 88) dedicated to the sons of Korah. (2.) Some of the sons of Korah also were "porters" of the temple (1 Chronicles 9:17); one of them was over "things that were made in the pans" (1 Chronicles 9:31), i.e., the baking in pans for the meat-offering (Leviticus 2:5).
