Moses, Aaron and All the Congregation Do The Will of Yahweh (Numbers 8:20).
‘Thus did Moses, and Aaron, and all the congregation of the children of Israel, to the Levites. According to all that Yahweh commanded Moses touching the Levites, so did the children of Israel to them.'
It is now stressed that both Moses and Aaron, and the whole people, obeyed Yahweh fully. They did to the Levites what Yahweh had commanded. From now on the Levites would see to the Dwellingplace, acting on behalf of the people and instead of their sons, and in return the people would ensure the liberal support of the Levites.
In Numbers 8:8 the whole congregation had been assembled for this purpose. Now they saw to its fulfilment.
