7Over the table of the Presence they are to spread a blue cloth and place the plates and cups on it, along with the bowls and pitchers for the drink offering. The regular bread offering is to remain on it. 8And they shall spread a scarlet cloth over them, cover them with fine leather, and insert the poles.
9They are to take a blue cloth and cover the lampstand used for light, together with its lamps, wick trimmers, and trays, as well as the jars of oil with which to supply it. 10Then they shall wrap it and all its utensils inside a covering of fine leather and put it on the carrying frame.
The continual bread, i.e. shew-bread; so called because it was continually to be there, even in the wilderness; where though they had only manna for themselves, yet they reserved corn for the weekly making of these loaves, which they might with no great difficulty procure from some of the people bordering upon the wilderness in the innermost parts whereof they were. (Poole)
From these verses can you see how well organized and orderly the Kohathites were?
Our pastor has to prepare and organize his sermons months in advance and submit them to the elders for approval. The process (checks and balances) is because the elders are responsible to the church and the teachings have to be true to the word of the Lord.
The Lord likes His house (Tent of the Meeting) to be organized and orderly, the Levites were assigned by their families and given assigned tasks.
Our church is no different. We have all kinds of teams that have their assigned tasks.
Is your church organized and orderly?
Blessings
