The Tabernacle in the Bible Explained

It's a pleasure to have you back with us again here at Daily Bread! We've learned recently about the numbering of the children of Israel and how their camp was set up, and the order that they traveled in with the tabernacle in the midst of them.

As we pick up in Chapter 3, the Lord told Moses to bring the tribe of Levi near so he could present them to Aaron the priest and they could serve him. They were given the responsibility of ministering to the congregation and the keeping of the tabernacle.

God told Moses, I've taken the Levites instead of all the firstborn of the children of Israel, so the Levites will be mine. The Lord told Moses to number the children of Levi, and Moses did. You can find the details of this numbering and the duties they were given in ministering of the tabernacle of the congregation in Numbers 3:17-39.

Then the Lord told Moses, Number all the firstborn of the males of the children of Israel from one month old and up and take a census of their names. And you will take the Levites for me instead of all the firstborn among the children of Israel and the cattle of the Levites instead of all the firstlings among the cattle of the children of Israel. Moses did as the Lord commanded.

There were more firstborn than there were Levites, so the Lord told Moses to take five shekels apiece for the extra firstborn being redeemed and give the money to Aaron and his sons.

In Chapter 4 are more of the details of each family of the Levites and their specific responsibilities regarding their service in ministering to the priesthood.

So the Levites became the Lord's instead of the firstborn of the children of Israel and their ministry in serving the Lord as priests forever, began.

When we return, we'll find out about God's laws for cleansing the camp and some laws against sin, here at your Daily Bread. Be sure to join us again.
