Commentary

But thus do unto them,.... As after directed: that they may live and not die; live long, and not die a sudden and violent death: when they approach unto the most holy things; the ark, the shewbread table, &c. to take them up and carry them: Aaron and his sons shall go in; into the holy and most holy places: and appoint them in everyone to his service, and to his burden; what everyone shall do, and how they shall take them up, and bear them.
