THE MESSAGE
God spoke to Moses: "I have taken the Levites from among the People of Israel as a stand-in for every Israelite mother's firstborn son. The Levites belong to me. All the firstborn are mine—when I killed all the firstborn in Egypt, I consecrated for my own use every firstborn in Israel, whether human or animal. They belong to me. I am God ."

Contextual Overview

¹ These also are the generations of Aaron and Moses, in the day that the Lord spake with Moses in Mount Sinai. ² And these are the names of the sonnes of Aaron: Nadab the first borne, and Abihu, Eleazar and Ithamar. ³ These are the names of the sonnes of Aaron the Priests, which were anointed, whom he consecrated to minister in the Priests office. ⁴ And Nadab and Abihu died before the Lord, when they offered strange fire before the Lord in the wildernesse of Sinai, and they had no children: and Eleazar and Ithamar ministred in the Priests office in the sight of Aaron their father. ⁵ And the Lord spake vnto Moses, saying, ⁶ Bring the tribe of Leui neere, and present them before Aaron the Priest, that they may minister vnto him. ⁷ And they shall keepe his charge, and the charge of the whole Congregation before the Tabernacle of the Congregation, to doe the seruice of the Tabernacle. ⁸ And they shall keepe all the instruments of the Tabernacle of the Congregation, and the charge of the children of Israel, to doe the seruice of the Tabernacle. ⁹ And thou shalt giue the Leuites vnto Aaron and to his sonnes: they are wholly giuen vnto him out of the children of Israel. ¹⁰ And thou shalt appoint Aaron and his sonnes, and they shall waite on their priests office: and the stranger that commeth nigh, shall bee put to death.
