Numbers 1-2

Numbers 1-2


The Lord commands Moses and Aaron to form a census for each of the camps of Israel using the head household of each tribe. The Levites were not included in the census. When they settled into a camp, the Levites were the ones camped closest to the tabernacle. The Levites were in charged for caring for the tabernacle. If another came close to it, they would be killed. This was the organization of Israel's congregation and community.
