The Census Of The Kohathites

These are the responsibilities of the Kohathites with the tent of meeting. ¹⁶ "The appointed responsibility of Eleazar son of Aaron the priest is for the oil for the light, and the spiced incense, and the daily grain offering, and the anointing oil; he also has the appointed responsibility over all the tabernacle with all that is in it, over the sanctuary and over all its furnishings."
