Numbers 18:6 Meaning and Commentary

Numbers 18:6

And I, behold, I have taken your brethren the Levites, from
among the children of Israel (See Gill on Numbers 3:12); where the same is said, only they, are here called the brethren of the priests for the reason given, ( Numbers 18:2 ) ; to you [they are] given [as] a gift for the Lord, to do the service of
the tabernacle of the congregation; (See Gill on Numbers 3:7), (See Gill on Numbers 3:8), and (See Gill on Numbers 3:9).

Numbers 18:6 In-Context

4 The Levites must join you in fulfilling their responsibilities for the care and maintenance of the Tabernacle, but no unauthorized person may assist you.
5 “You yourselves must perform the sacred duties inside the sanctuary and at the altar. If you follow these instructions, the LORD ’s anger will never again blaze against the people of Israel.
6 I myself have chosen your fellow Levites from among the Israelites to be your special assistants. They are a gift to you, dedicated to the LORD for service in the Tabernacle.
7 But you and your sons, the priests, must personally handle all the priestly rituals associated with the altar and with everything behind the inner curtain. I am giving you the priesthood as your special privilege of service. Any unauthorized person who comes too near the sanctuary will be put to death.”
8 The LORD gave these further instructions to Aaron: “I myself have put you in charge of all the holy offerings that are brought to me by the people of Israel. I have given all these consecrated offerings to you and your sons as your permanent share.
