'Extremities' in the Bible

And he maketh the house of high places, and maketh priests of the extremities of the people, who were not of the sons of Levi;

After this thing Jeroboam hath not turned from his evil way, and turneth back, and maketh of the extremities of the people priests of high places; he who is desirous he consecrateth his hand, and he is of the priests of the high places.
