Numbers 4:34
32 and the posts of the surrounding courtyard with their bases, tent pegs, and ropes, including all their equipment and everything related to their use. You shall assign by name the items that they are responsible to carry.
33 This is the service of the Merarite clans according to all their work at the Tent of Meeting, under the direction of Ithamar son of Aaron the priest.”
So Moses, Aaron, and the leaders of the congregation numbered the Kohathites by their clans and families,
35 everyone from thirty to fifty years old who came to serve in the work at the Tent of Meeting.
36 And those numbered by their clans totaled 2,750.
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.
