The Levites were set apart for the service of the Tabernacle, and each family had specific duties. Gershon's descendants were responsible for the care of the Tabernacle's curtains, coverings, and other fabric elements. The Hebrew root for Gershon is "גֵּרְשׁוֹן" (Gershon), which can mean "exile" or "sojourner." This name reflects the transient nature of the Israelites' journey through the wilderness, emphasizing the theme of pilgrimage and reliance on God.
