Notes, Explanatory and Practical, on the Old and New Testaments (1832-1869)

The Levites could only undertake their duties Num. 3; 4 after the formal exchange of the Levites for the first-born Num 3:44-51. The distinction between the “consecration” of the priests Lev. 8 and the less solemn “purification” Num 8:21 of the Levites is marked. These rites of purification are similar to those incumbent on the priests of Egypt.
