The chapter seems to fall into four units: responsibilities of priests (vv. 1-7 ), their portions (vv. 8-19 ), responsibilities of Levites (vv. 20-24 ), and instructions for Levites (vv. 25-32 ).","source_note_position":1,"source_url":"https://netbible.org/resource/netNote/Numbers%2018%3A1/1"}

This was stated to forestall any further violations of the sanctuary. The priests were to pay for any ritual errors, primarily if any came too near. Since the priests and Levites come near all the time, they risk violating ritual laws more than any. So, with the great privileges come great responsibilities. The bottom line is that they were responsible for the sanctuary.","source_note_position":3,"source_url":"https://netbible.org/resource/netNote/Numbers%2018%3A1/3"}

There Leah hoped that with the birth of Levi her husband would be attached to her. Here, with the selection of the tribe to serve in the sanctuary, there is the wordplay again showing that the Levites will be attached to Aaron and the priests. The verb is יִלָּווּ ( yillavu ), which forms a nice wordplay with Levi ( לֵוִי ). The tribe will now be attached to the sanctuary. The verb is the imperfect with a vav ( ו ) that shows volitive sequence after the imperative, here indicating a purpose clause.","source_note_position":1,"source_url":"https://netbible.org/resource/netNote/Numbers%2018%3A2/1"}

Even general agreements were attested by sacrifice, and the phrase “covenant of salt” speaks of such agreements as binding and irrevocable. Note the expression in Ezra 4:14 , “we have been salted with the salt of the palace.” See further J. F. Ross, IDB 4:167.","source_note_position":1,"source_url":"https://netbible.org/resource/netNote/Numbers%2018%3A19/1"}
