Gill's Notes on the Bible
From thirty years old and upward, until fifty years old,
shalt thou number them,.... Take an account how many there are of that age, and so fit for service a; :-;
to do the work in the tabernacle of the congregation; as the rest of the Levites; see Numbers 4:3;

Barnes' Notes on the Bible
enter in to perform the service - literally, as in the margin, “to war the warfare,” or, as the same phrase in part is rendered, Numbers 4:3, “enter into the host to do the work.” The language is military. The service of God is a sacred warfare (Numbers 8:24-25 marginal reading).
