Levi's descendants are significant in the biblical narrative as they become the tribe set apart for religious duties. The Hebrew root for Levi, "לֵוִי" (Levi), is associated with the idea of joining or being attached, which is fitting as the Levites were attached to the service of the Tabernacle and later the Temple. Historically, the Levites played a crucial role in Israelite society, serving as priests and caretakers of the sacred traditions. This lineage emphasizes the importance of spiritual leadership and dedication to God's service. Gershon Kohath and Merari Parallel Commentaries ...
