民數記3:5-10


3:5 耶和華曉諭摩西說:
3:6
「你使利未支派近前來,站在祭司亞倫面前好服事他,
3:7
替他和會眾在會幕前守所吩咐的,辦理帳幕的事。
3:8
又要看守會幕的器具,並守所吩咐以色列人的,辦理帳幕的事。
3:9
你要將利未人給亞倫和他的兒子,因為他們是從以色列人中選出來給他的。
3:10
你要囑咐亞倫和他的兒子謹守自己祭司的職任。近前來的外人必被治死。」

The Lord said to Moses, “Bring the tribe of Levi and present them to Aaron the priest to assist him. They are to perform duties for him and for the whole community at the tent of meeting by doing the work of the tabernacle. They are to take care of all the furnishings of the tent of meeting, fulfilling the obligations of the Israelites by doing the work of the tabernacle. Give the Levites to Aaron and his sons; they are the Israelites who are to be given wholly to him. 10 Appoint Aaron and his sons to serve as priests; anyone else who approaches the sanctuary is to be put to death.”

*************

    除了不要獻凡火,上帝也要亞倫家看重自己的職分,就是「亞倫和他的兒子謹守自己祭司的職任。近前來的外人必被治死。」

    雖然利未人是上帝所揀選的,「站在祭司亞倫面前好服事他,替他和會眾在會幕前守所吩咐的,辦理帳幕的事。又要看守會幕的器具,並守所吩咐以色列人的,辦理帳幕的事。你要將利未人給亞倫和他的兒子,因為他們是從以色列人中選出來給他的。」

    但是大祭司的職分,是利未人無法代替的,只有單屬於亞倫家的!因為他們是基督的預表,正如使徒行傳412節說:「除他以外,別無拯救;因為在天下人間,沒有賜下別的名,我們可以靠著得救。」
