vessels thereof at the removing of the camp, then shall the sons of

the sons of Caath: in the tabernacle of the covenant:

4:16. And over them shall be Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest, to
whose charge pertaineth the oil to dress the lamps, and the sweet

is to carry.

sanctuary before they be wrapped up, otherwise they shall die.

hanging that hangeth in the entry of the tabernacle of the covenant,
