Summary

This verse describes the organization of the Israelites as they journeyed through the wilderness. The sons of Gershon and Merari were assigned to carry specific parts of the tabernacle, while the Kohathites were responsible for the most sacred items. Each group had a designated leader and knew their role in the transportation of the tabernacle. This orderly arrangement ensured that the holy items were handled with reverence and care as the Israelites moved from place to place in obedience to God's guidance.

John Gill Bible Commentary

And he said unto him, I will not go,.... Which was a very peremptory answer, he seemed determined, and at a point about it for the present, though it is, probable he afterwards changed his mind, like the young man in the parable, Mat 21:29, but I will depart to mine own land, and to my kindred; which were prevailing motives with him, his native country, his relations, and father's house; to this resolution he came, both because of his substance, and because of his family, as Jarchi.
