heads of their fathers' households, made an
offering (they were the leaders of the tribes; they
were the ones who were over the numbered
men).

sons of Kohath because theirs was the service of
the holy objects, which they carried on the
shoulder.

OPENS THE WOMB SHALL BE CALLED HOLY TO
THE LORD "), 24 and to offer a sacrifice according
to what was said in the Law of the Lord, "A PAIR
OF TURTLEDOVES OR TWO YOUNG PIGEONS."
