Numbers 18:23

OLD TESTAMENTNEW TESTAMENT

But the Levites shall do the service of the tabernacle of meeting, and they shall bear their iniquity: it shall be a statute forever throughout your generations, that among the children of Israel they have no inheritance.

Verse 22 Read Chapter 18 Verse 24

George Leo Haydock

AD 1849

People; or the Hebrew may be also, "they shall bear their own iniquity. "If they prove negligent in performing their duty, they shall be punished; and if they do not restrain the people from approaching the tabernacle, they shall be answerable for their offence, and both shall incur death. (Calmet) They shall, however, save their own souls, if they have not been deficient in instructing the people, and in doing their utmost to prevent any profanation. (Haydock)
