Numbers 3:7 - Ellicott's Commentary On The Whole Bible

Bible Comments

And they shall keep his charge. — The word rendered charge may mean the directions which the Levites should receive from Aaron (comp. Genesis 26:5); or — as seems more probable from the use of the same word in this and the following verse with reference to the congregation — it may refer to the charge which was laid upon Aaron and upon the whole congregation in matters pertaining to the public worship of God.

Numbers 3:7

7 And they shall keep his charge, and the charge of the whole congregation before the tabernacle of the congregation, to do the service of the tabernacle.
