Was Caiaphas a Levite?

Caiaphas, according to the New Testament, was a Jewish High Priest, so he must have been from the subsection of Levites called Cohens (the descendants of Aaron, Moses's brother). Since Aaron was himself a Levite, all Cohens are Levites.

Is a nazirite and a Levite the same?

No, a Nazirite and a Levite are not the same. A Nazirite is an individual who takes a vow to abstain from wine, cutting their hair, and touching dead bodies for a period of time as an act of devotion to God. A Levite, on the other hand, is a member of the tribe of Levi who had specific religious duties in ancient Israel, such as serving in the tabernacle or temple.

Why did Uzzah die for touching the ark?

God commanded that ONLY Kohathite Levites carry the Ark, and they must do it with poles on their shoulders (Exodus 25:13, 14 )(Numbers 4:15). ANY unauthorized touching of sacred things would be punishable by death. This was not a secret and everyone involved knew the seriousness of breaking these laws.(Numbers 4:19, 20) However, instead of moving the Ark the way God prescribed, it was disobediently placed on a cart pulled by oxen. Uz′zah and his brother, A‧hi′o, the sons of A‧bin′a‧dab, were leading the new wagon(2 Samuel 6:3), and when it became unstable, Uzzah (perhaps out of wanting to appear a hero) reached out to grab it and broke God's law. This was considered an irreverent act (2 Samuel 6:6+7) because deliberate disobedience was involved(1Chronicles 13:7-11).
