The Sons of Aaron
1
This is the account of Aaron and Moses at the time [[YHWH|the LORD]] spoke with Moses on Mount Sinai.
וְאֵ֛לֶּה תּוֹלְדֹ֥ת אַהֲרֹ֖ן וּמֹשֶׁ֑ה בְּי֗וֹם יְהוָ֛ה דִּבֶּ֧ר אֶת־ מֹשֶׁ֖ה בְּהַ֥ר סִינָֽי׃ wə·’êl·leh tō·wl·ḏōṯ ’a·hă·rōn ū·mō·šeh bə·yō·wm Yah·weh dib·ber ’eṯ- mō·šeh bə·har sî·nāy — WLC · 1
Καὶ αὗται αἱ γενέσεις Ἀαρὼν καὶ Μωυσῆ, ἐν ᾗ ἡμέρᾳ ἐλάλησεν Κύριος τῷ Μωυσῇ ἐν ὄρει Σεινά. — LXX Swete · 1
2
These are the names of the sons of Aaron: Nadab the firstborn, then Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar.
וְאֵ֛לֶּה שְׁמ֥וֹת בְּֽנֵי־ אַהֲרֹ֖ן נָדָ֑ב הַבְּכ֣וֹר׀ וַאֲבִיה֕וּא אֶלְעָזָ֖ר וְאִיתָמָֽר׃ wə·’êl·leh šə·mō·wṯ bə·nê- ’a·hă·rōn nā·ḏāḇ hab·bə·ḵō·wr wa·’ă·ḇî·hū ’el·‘ā·zār wə·’î·ṯā·mār — WLC · 2

3
These [were] Aaron’s sons, the anointed priests, who were ordained… to serve as priests.
אֵ֗לֶּה אַהֲרֹ֔ן שְׁמוֹת֙ בְּנֵ֣י הַמְּשֻׁחִ֑ים הַכֹּהֲנִ֖ים אֲשֶׁר־ מִלֵּ֥א יָדָ֖ם לְכַהֵֽן׃ ’êl·leh ’a·hă·rōn šə·mō·wṯ bə·nê ham·mə·šu·ḥîm hak·kō·hă·nîm ’ă·šer- mil·lê yā·ḏām lə·ḵa·hên — WLC · 3
ταῦτα τὰ ὀνόματα τῶν υἱῶν Ἀαρών, οἱ ἱερεῖς οἱ ἠλιμμένοι, οὓς ἐτελείωσαν τὰς χεῖρας αὐτῶν ἱερατεύειν. — LXX Swete · 3
4
Nadab and Abihu, however, died in the presence of [[YHWH|the LORD]] when they offered unauthorized fire before [[YHWH|the LORD]] in the Wilderness of Sinai. And since they had no sons, only Eleazar and Ithamar served as priests during the lifetime of their father Aaron.

The Duties of the Levites
5
Then [[YHWH|the LORD]] said to Moses…,
יְהוָ֖ה וַיְדַבֵּ֥ר אֶל־ מֹשֶׁ֥ה לֵּאמֹֽר׃ Yah·weh way·ḏab·bêr ’el- mō·šeh lê·mōr — WLC · 5

“Bring the tribe of Levi and present them to Aaron the priest to assist him -.

8
They shall take care of all the furnishings of the Tent of Meeting and fulfill obligations for the Israelites… by attending to the service of the tabernacle.
וְשָׁמְר֗וּ אֶֽת־ כָּל־ כְּלֵי֙ אֹ֣הֶל מוֹעֵ֔ד וְאֶת־ מִשְׁמֶ֖רֶת בְּנֵ֣י יִשְׂרָאֵ֑ל לַעֲבֹ֖ד אֶת־ עֲבֹדַ֥ת הַמִּשְׁכָּֽן׃ wə·šā·mə·rū ’eṯ- kāl- kə·lê ’ō·hel mō·w·‘êḏ wə·’eṯ- miš·me·reṯ bə·nê yiś·rā·’êl la·‘ă·ḇōḏ ’eṯ- ‘ă·ḇō·ḏaṯ ham·miš·kān — WLC · 8

9
Assign the Levites to Aaron and his sons; they have been given exclusively… to him from among the Israelites…
וְנָתַתָּה֙ אֶת־ הַלְוִיִּ֔ם לְאַהֲרֹ֖ן וּלְבָנָ֑יו הֵ֙מָּה֙ נְתוּנִ֨ם נְתוּנִ֥ם ל֔וֹ מֵאֵ֖ת בְּנֵ֥י יִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃ wə·nā·ṯat·tāh ’eṯ- hal·wî·yim lə·’a·hă·rōn ū·lə·ḇā·nāw hêm·māh nə·ṯū·nim nə·ṯū·nim lōw mê·’êṯ bə·nê yiś·rā·’êl — WLC · 9

10
So you shall appoint Aaron and his sons to carry out the duties of the priesthood; but any outsider who approaches [the tabernacle] must be put to death.”

11
Again [[YHWH|the LORD]] spoke to Moses, saying,
יְהוָ֖ה וַיְדַבֵּ֥ר אֶל־ מֹשֶׁ֥ה לֵּאמֹֽר׃ Yah·weh way·ḏab·bêr ’el- mō·šeh lê·mōr — WLC · 11
12
“Behold, I have taken the Levites from among the children of Israel in place of every… firstborn Israelite… from the womb. The Levites belong to Me,

13
for all the firstborn [are] Mine. On the day I struck down every firstborn in the land of Egypt, I consecrated to Myself all the firstborn in Israel, both man and beast. They are Mine; I am [[YHWH|the LORD]].”

The Numbering of the Levites
14
Then [[YHWH|the LORD]] spoke to Moses in the Wilderness of Sinai, saying,
יְהוָה֙ וַיְדַבֵּ֤ר אֶל־ מֹשֶׁ֔ה בְּמִדְבַּ֥ר סִינַ֖י לֵאמֹֽר׃ Yah·weh way·ḏab·bêr ’el- mō·šeh bə·miḏ·bar sî·nay lê·mōr — WLC · 14

15
“Number the Levites… by their families… and clans. You are to count every male a month old or more.”

16
So Moses numbered them according to the word of [[YHWH|the LORD]], as he had been commanded.

Moses and Aaron

Moses, Aaron, and [Aaron’s sons] were to camp to the east of the tabernacle, toward the sunrise, before the Tent of Meeting. They were to perform the duties of the sanctuary as a service vvv on behalf of the Israelites; but any outsider who approached [the sanctuary] was to be put to death.

The total number of Levites that Moses and Aaron counted by their clans at [[YHWH|the LORD]]’s command, including all the males a month old or more, was 22,000…

The Redemption of the Firstborn
40
Then [[YHWH|the LORD]]… said to Moses, “Number every firstborn male vvv of the Israelites a month old or more, and list - their names.
יְהוָ֜ה אֶל־ וַיֹּ֨אמֶר מֹשֶׁ֗ה פְּקֹ֨ד כָּל־ בְּכֹ֤ר זָכָר֙ לִבְנֵ֣י יִשְׂרָאֵ֔ל חֹ֖דֶשׁ מִבֶּן־ וָמָ֑עְלָה וְשָׂ֕א אֵ֖ת מִסְפַּ֥ר שְׁמֹתָֽם׃ Yah·weh ’el- way·yō·mer mō·šeh pə·qōḏ kāl- bə·ḵōr zā·ḵār liḇ·nê yiś·rā·’êl ḥō·ḏeš mib·ben- wā·mā·‘ə·lāh wə·śā ’êṯ mis·par šə·mō·ṯām — WLC · 40

41
You are to take the Levites for Me— I am [[YHWH|the LORD]]— in place of all the firstborn vvv of Israel, and the livestock of the Levites in place of all the firstborn of the livestock vvv of the Israelites.”
וְלָקַחְתָּ֨ אֶת־ הַלְוִיִּ֥ם לִי֙ אֲנִ֣י יְהוָ֔ה תַּ֥חַת כָּל־ בְּכֹ֖ר בִּבְנֵ֣י יִשְׂרָאֵ֑ל וְאֵת֙ בֶּהֱמַ֣ת הַלְוִיִּ֔ם תַּ֣חַת כָּל־ בְּכ֔וֹר בְּבֶהֱמַ֖ת בְּנֵ֥י יִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃ wə·lā·qaḥ·tā ’eṯ- hal·wî·yim lî ’ă·nî Yah·weh ta·ḥaṯ kāl- bə·ḵōr biḇ·nê yiś·rā·’êl wə·’êṯ be·hĕ·maṯ hal·wî·yim ta·ḥaṯ kāl- bə·ḵō·wr bə·ḇe·hĕ·maṯ bə·nê yiś·rā·’êl — WLC · 41

So Moses numbered all the firstborn vvv of the Israelites, as [[YHWH|the LORD]] had commanded him. -

Again [[YHWH|the LORD]] spoke to Moses, saying,

you are to collect five… shekels for each one, according to the sanctuary… shekel of twenty gerahs…
