'Houses' in the Bible

“Organize your ancestral houses by your divisions according to the written instruction of David king of Israel and that of his son Solomon.

Serve in the holy place by the divisions of the ancestral houses for your brothers, the lay people, and the distribution of the tribal household of the Levites.

They removed the burnt offerings so that they might be given to the divisions of the ancestral houses of the lay people to offer to the Lord, according to what is written in the book of Moses; they did the same with the bulls.
