Verse 40 is found in chapter 3 of Numbers. God commands the firstborn of Israel to be counted and establishes the Levites as their substitutes. Because the number of firstborn exceeds the number of Levites, a redemption price is established for the difference. The episode connects the organization of worship with the memory of the exodus: the firstborn symbolically belong to God because they were preserved during the final plague in Egypt.
