Contextual Overview

14 And the Lorde spake vnto Moyses in the wyldernesse of Sinai, saying: 15 Number the chyldren of Leui after the houses of their fathers in their kinredes: All that are males from a moneth old and aboue, shalt thou number. 16 And Moyses numbred them, according to the worde of the Lorde, as he was commaunded. 17 And these were the chyldren of Leui in their names: Gerson, and Caath, and Merari. 18 And these are the names of the chyldren of Gerson in their kinredes: Libni, and Semei. 19 The sonnes of Caath in their kinredes: Amram, Iesar, Hebron, and Oziel. 20 And the sonnes of Merari in their kinredes: Maheli, and Musi. These are the kinredes of the Leuites, accordyng to the houses of their fathers. 21 Of Gerson came the kinred of the Libnites and the kinred of the Semeites. These are the kinredes of the Gersonites, 22 And the summe of them after the number of all the males, from a moneth old and aboue, was counted seuen thousande and fiue hundred. 23 And the kinredes of the Gersonites shall pitch behinde the tabernacle westwarde.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

In the number of all the males, from a month old and upwards, [were] eight thousand and six hundred,.... 8,600 men, which was the largest number of any of the houses of the Levites; but considering it had double the number of families in it, the increase was not so large in proportion, at least to Gershon, whose two families wanted but 1,100 of these four:

keeping the charge of the sanctuary; of the holy and most holy places, and the vessels and instruments belonging thereunto; not that the males of a month old were keeping them, but when they were grown up and were capable of it, they had the charge thereof, in which they were instructed and trained up from their youth.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Of the Levites, the Kohathites, the kinsmen of Moses and Aaron, and the most numerous, have the most important charge confided to them, namely, that of the ark, the altars, and the more especially sacred furniture generally.
