THE MESSAGE
God spoke to Moses and Aaron, "Don't let the tribal families of the Kohathites be destroyed from among the Levites. Protect them so they will live and not die when they come near the most holy things. To protect them, Aaron and his sons are to precede them into the Sanctuary and assign each man his task and what he is to carry. But the Kohathites themselves must not go in to look at the holy things, not even a glance at them, or they will die."

Contextual Overview
1Then Yahweh spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying, 2"Take a census of the descendants of Kohath from among the sons of Levi, by their families, by their fathers' households, 3from thirty years and upward, even to fifty years old, all who enter the duty of doing the work in the tent of meeting. 4This is the service of the sons of Kohath in the tent of meeting, concerning the most holy things. 5"And when the camp sets out, Aaron and his sons shall go in and they shall take down the veil of the screen and cover the ark of the testimony with it; 6and they shall put a covering of porpoise skin on it and shall spread over it a cloth of pure blue and shall insert its poles. 7Over the table of the bread of the Presence they shall also spread a cloth of blue and put on it the dishes and the pans and the offering bowls and the jars for the drink offering, and the continual bread shall be on it. 8And they shall spread over them a cloth of scarlet material and cover the same with a covering of porpoise skin, and they shall insert its poles. 9Then they shall take a blue cloth and cover the lampstand for the light, along with its lamps and its tongs, and its trays and all its oil vessels, by which they minister in connection to it; 10and they shall put it and all its utensils in a covering of porpoise skin and shall put it on the carrying bars.
