V.1-3 These Levites showed that they were not jealous over what had been given to their brethren. They treasured the Lord’s special promise to themselves.
V.4-8 These Levites were scattered throughout the twelve tribes on both sides of the Jordan River. They were the special servants of the Lord.
V.9-42 The children of Aaron were divided into four groups: the priests, the Kohathites, the Gershonites and the Merarites. Each group had its special work as we saw in reading the book of Numbers. Here they are getting part of their rewards. In Mark 13:3434For the Son of man is as a man taking a far journey, who left his house, and gave authority to his servants, and to every man his work, and commanded the porter to watch. (Mark 13:34) we read something of the same for us today.
V.43-45 What a God we have! How sure is everything He has said! What rest we will find in simply relying upon the Holy Scriptures!
