Numbers 3:10 - Forerunner Commentary

Numbers 3:10

8 Also they shall attend to all the furnishings of the tabernacle of meeting, and to the needs of the children of Israel, to do the work of the tabernacle.

9 And ^ayou shall give the Levites to Aaron and his sons; they are given entirely to¹ him from among the children of Israel.

10 So you shall appoint Aaron and his sons, ^aand they shall attend to their priesthood; ^bbut the outsider who comes near shall be put to death.”

11 Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:

12 “Now behold, ^aI Myself have taken the Levites from among the children of Israel instead of every firstborn who opens the womb among the children of Israel. Therefore the Levites shall be ^bMine,

13 because ^aall the firstborn are Mine. ^bOn the day that I struck all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, I sanctified to Myself all the firstborn in Israel, both man and beast. They shall be Mine: I am the Lord.”

14 Then the Lord spoke to Moses in the Wilderness of Sinai, saying:
