Contextual Overview

14 The Lord again said to Moses in the Desert of Sinai, 15 "Count the Levites by families and family groups. Count every male one month old or older." 16 So Moses obeyed the Lord and counted them all. 17 Levi had three sons, whose names were Gershon, Kohath, and Merari. 18 The Gershonite family groups were Libni and Shimei. 19 The Kohathite family groups were Amram, Izhar, Hebron, and Uzziel. 20 The Merarite family groups were Mahli and Mushi. These were the family groups of the Levites. 21 The family groups of Libni and Shimei belonged to Gershon; they were the Gershonite family groups. 22 The number that was counted was 7,500 males one month old or older. 23 The Gershonite family groups camped on the west side, behind the Holy Tent.
