Commentary on Numbers 4:2
Taking the sum 'of the sons of Kohath from among the sons of Levi' shows distinction within distinction—the Kohathites were separated from the Levites, who were already separated from Israel. This multi-layered consecration teaches the principle of increasing holiness as one draws nearer to God's presence. The Kohathites handled the most holy objects, requiring special separation. This parallels the New Testament pattern where all believers are priests (1 Peter 2:9), yet some are called to specific service requiring additional qualifications (1 Timothy 3:1-13).
