Contextual Overview
1Then Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying, 2"Speak to the sons of Israel, and get from them a rod for each father's household: twelve rods from all their leaders according to their fathers' households. You shall write each name on his rod, 3and write Aaron's name on the rod of Levi; for there is one rod for the head of each of their fathers' households. 4You shall then deposit them in the tent of meeting in front of the testimony, where I meet with you. 5And it will come about that the rod of the man whom I choose will sprout. Thus I will rid Myself of the grumblings of the sons of Israel, who are grumbling against you." 6Moses therefore spoke to the sons of Israel, and all their leaders gave him a rod apiece, for each leader according to their fathers' households, twelve rods, with the rod of Aaron among their rods. 7So Moses deposited the rods before Yahweh in the tent of the testimony.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And thou shalt lay them up in the tabernacle of the congregation,.... In the most holy place:
before the testimony; that is, the ark in which the testimony or the law was; here they were laid as in the presence of God, who was in a miraculous way to decide the controversy by them, and put an end to it; for upon the ark was the mercy seat, over which were the cherubim, the seat of the divine Majesty, and where none could come at them, and where no fraud could be supposed to be committed:
where I will meet with you; not with the people in person, who might not go at any time into the most holy place; nor with Aaron, who only might go into it on the day of atonement; but with Moses, the chief ruler and representative of the whole body of the people, and who might go in there at any time, to consult with God about matters of moment and difficulty, and where the Lord had said he would meet him,
Exodus 25:22; and now would, in a miraculous way, clearly show him, and the people of Israel by him, who was the priest he had chosen of all the tribes.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
