These are the statutes, ordinances, and laws the Lord established between himself and the Israelites through Moses on Mount Sinai.
So Moses registered them in obedience to the Lord as he had been commanded:
The Amramite clan, the Izharite clan, the Hebronite clan, and the Uzzielite clan came from Kohath; these were the Kohathites.
The Gershonites were registered by their clans and their ancestral families,
from thirty years old to fifty years old, everyone who was qualified to do the work of serving at the tent of meeting and transporting it.
At the Lord’s command they were registered under the direction of Moses, each one according to his work and transportation duty, and his assignment was as the Lord commanded Moses.
