וְגַם לַלְוִיִּם אֵין־לָשֵׂאת אֶת־הַמִּשְׁכָּן וְאֶת־כׇּל־כֵּלָיו לַעֲבֹדָתֽוֹ׃

כי מעמדם ליד בני אהרן וגו'. דוגמא וילוו עליך וישרתוך:
ועל טהרת לכל קדש. שאם יטמא הבית וכליו שיהיו הם ממונים לטהרו שכן מצינו בחזקיהו כדכתיב (לקמן ב' כ"ט) ויקבלו הלוים להוציא לנחל קדרון חוצה וכתיב ויחלו באחד לחדש הראשון לקדש וגו':
וּלְלֶחֶם הַֽמַּעֲרֶכֶת וּלְסֹלֶת לְמִנְחָה וְלִרְקִיקֵי הַמַּצּוֹת וְלַֽמַּחֲבַת וְלַמֻּרְבָּכֶת וּלְכׇל־מְשׂוּרָה וּמִדָּֽה׃

ולכל העלות עלות לה' לשבתות לחדשים. פתרון הם יהיו ממונים על הלשכות וגם על לשכת בית הטלאים שהקרבנות שם והם יביאו אל הכהנים תמיד בכל יום במספר מה שצריכים בכל יום בין בחול בין בשבתות ובחדשים ובמועדים שמוסיפים על התמיד כל אלה יביאו במספר כמשפט וגם מסייעים לכהנים להפשיט הזבח וכן מצינו בחזקיהו רק הכהנים היו למעט ולא יכלו להפשיט את כל העולות ויחזקום אחיהם הלוים וגו':
וְשָׁמְרוּ אֶת־מִשְׁמֶרֶת אֹֽהֶל־מוֹעֵד וְאֵת מִשְׁמֶרֶת הַקֹּדֶשׁ וּמִשְׁמֶרֶת בְּנֵי אַהֲרֹן אֲחֵיהֶם לַעֲבֹדַת בֵּית יְהֹוָֽה׃ {פ}
