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 Now, these, were the pedigrees of Aaron and Moses, - in the day when Yahweh spake with Moses in Mount Sinai. ² And these, are the names of the sons of Aaron - the firstborn Nadab, - and Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar. ³ These, are the names of the sons of Aaron, the priests that were anointed, - who were installed to minister as priests. ⁴ But Nadab and Abihu died before Yahweh when they brought near strange fire before Yahweh in the desert of Sinai, and sons, had they none, - so then Eleazar and Ithamar ministered as priests, in the presence of Aaron their father. ⁵ Then spake Yahweh unto Moses, saying - ⁶ Bring near the tribe of Levi, and thou shalt cause it to stand before Aaron the priest, - so shall they wait upon him; ⁷ so shall they keep his charge, and the charge of all the assembly, before the tent of meeting, - to do the laborious work of the habitation; ⁸ so shall they have charge of all the furniture of the tent of meeting, even the charge of the sons of Israel, - to do the laborious work of the habitation. ⁹ Thus shalt thou give the Levites unto Aaron and unto his sons, - given, given, they are unto him, from among the sons of Israel; ¹⁰ but unto Aaron, and unto his sons, shalt thou give oversight, so shall they keep charge of their priesthood, - and, the stranger who cometh near, shall be put to death.
