"And when Aaron and his sons have made an end of covering the sanctuary and all things of the sanctuary, against that the host remove, then the sons of Kohath shall come in for to bear, and so let them not touch the sanctuary lest they die. And this is the charge of the sons of Kohath in the tabernacle of witness. And Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest, shall have the charge to prepare oil for the lights and sweet cense, and the daily meat offering and the anointing oil, and the oversight of all the dwelling and of all that therein is, both over the sanctuary and over all that pertaineth thereto." And the LORD spake unto Moses and Aaron, saying, "Destroy not the tribe of the kindreds of the Kohathites, from among the Levites. But thus do unto them that they may live and not die, when they go unto the most holy place. Aaron and his sons shall go in and put them, every man unto his service and unto his burden. But let them not go in to see when they cover the sanctuary, lest they die." And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, "Take the sum of the children of Gershon, in the houses of their fathers and in their kindreds - from thirty years and above, until fifty, all that are able to go forth in war - for to do service in the tabernacle of witness. And this is the service of the kindred of the Gershonites, to serve and to bear. They shall bear the curtains of the dwelling and the roof of the tabernacle of witness and his covering and the covering of taxus' skins that is on high above upon it, and the hanging of the door of the tabernacle of witness: and the hanging of the court and the hanging of the gate of the court that is round about the dwelling and the altar, and the cords of them, and all the instruments that serve unto them and all that is made for them. And at the mouth of Aaron and his sons, shall all the service of the children of the Gershonites be done, in all their charges and in all their service, and ye shall appoint them unto all their charges that they shall wait upon. And this is the service of the kindred of the children of the Gershonites in the tabernacle of witness, and their wait shall be in the hand of Ithamar the son of Aaron the priest. "And thou shalt number the sons of Merari in their kindreds and in the houses of their fathers - from thirty years and above unto fifty, all that is able to go forth in war - to do the service of the tabernacle of witness. And this is the charge, that they must wait upon in all that they must serve in the tabernacle of witness: The boards of the dwelling, and the bars, pillars, and sockets thereof, and the pillars of the court round about, and their sockets, pins and cords with all that pertaineth and serveth unto them. And by name ye shall reckon the things that they must wait upon to bear. This is the service of the kindreds of the sons of Merari in all their service in the tabernacle of witness by the hand of Ithamar the son of Aaron the priest."
And Moses took the chariots and the oxen, and gave them unto the Levites: two chariots and four oxen he gave unto the sons of Gershon according unto their office. And four chariots and eight oxen he gave unto the sons of Merari according unto their offices, under the hands of Ithamar the son of Aaron the priest. read more.
But unto the sons of Kohath he gave none, for the office that pertained to them was holy, and therefore they must bear upon shoulders.
