[Jochebed and Miriam are the only women mentioned in the Levitical family tree. Note that it says that Jochebed bore the children; otherwise, only the father and sons are usually mentioned in the genealogical records. In this context, it says how "Jochebed was born to Levi" and "to Aaron was born," see verse 60. See also Gen. 4:18; 6:10; 5:7. The word "born" can also be used to mean descendant of Levi. Sometimes names can be omitted in genealogies, see, for example, Matt. 1:1, 8.]
