Verse 14 is found in chapter 8 of Numbers. The Levites are purified, presented before God, and formally assigned to the service of the tabernacle. Their dedication functions as a substitute for Israel’s firstborn and establishes a group specially consecrated for service. The passage also establishes ages of service and retirement, showing that Levitical ministry has an institutional structure within Israel’s life.
