Verse 6 is found in chapter 18 of Numbers. God defines the responsibilities of priests and Levites in relation to the sanctuary. Aaron and his sons are responsible for the priesthood, while the Levites assist in the service but must not approach the sacred utensils improperly. The distinction responds directly to the previous rebellions and establishes clear boundaries to prevent further transgressions against the sanctuary.
