'Responsibility' in the Bible
But he did not give any to the Kohathites, since their responsibility was service related to the holy objects carried on their shoulders.
“I said to you at that time: I can’t bear the responsibility for you on my own.
Lord, forgive Your people Israel You redeemed, and do not hold the shedding of innocent blood against them.’ Then they will be absolved of responsibility for bloodshed.
Get up, for this matter is your responsibility, and we support you. Be strong and take action!”
Then the burnt offerings, grain offerings, and drink offerings for the festivals, New Moons, and Sabbaths—for all the appointed times of the house of Israel—will be the prince’s responsibility. He will provide the sin offerings, grain offerings, burnt offerings, and fellowship offerings to make atonement on behalf of the house of Israel.
