But to the sons of Kohath he gave none, because the service of the sanctuary belonged to them; they carried it on their shoulders.
Private to you. Anything you write on this verse, here or while reading, shows up here and in My study.
But to the sons of Kohath he gave none, because the service of the sanctuary belonged to them; they carried it on their shoulders.
But he did not give any to the Kohathites, since they were to carry on their shoulders the holy objects for which they were responsible.
But unto the sons of Kohath he gave none: because the service of the sanctuary belonging unto them was that they should bear upon their shoulders.
But unto the sons of Kohath he gave none, because the service of the sanctuary belonged unto them; they bare it upon their shoulders.
But to the sons of Kohath he gave nothing; because they had the care of the holy place, taking it about on their backs.
Tap a word to see what it means and everywhere else it's used.
Matthew Henry · Verses 1–9
The offering of the princes to the service of the tabernacle was not made till it was fully set up. Necessary observances must always take place of free-will offerings. The more any are advanced, the greater opportunity they have of serving God and their generation. No sooner was the tabernacle set up, than provision is made for the removal of it. Even when but just settled in the world, we must be preparing for changes and removes, especially for the great change.
