Numbers 3:30
28 The number of all the males a month old or more was 8,600. They were responsible for the duties of the sanctuary.
29 The clans of the Kohathites were to camp on the south side of the tabernacle,
and the leader of the families of the Kohathites was Elizaphan son of Uzziel.
31 Their duties were the ark, the table, the lampstand, the altars, the articles of the sanctuary used with them, and the curtain—all the service for these items.
32 The chief of the leaders of the Levites was Eleazar son of Aaron the priest; he oversaw those responsible for the duties of the sanctuary.
This was said to Israel at a particular time, so it is wise to read it together with the surrounding text. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
