1. 여호와께서 아론에게 이르시되 너와 네 아들들과 네 종족은 성소에 대한 죄를 함께 담당할 것이요 너와 네 아들들은 너희가 그 제사장 직분에 대한 죄를 함께 담당할 것이니라

  And the Lord said unto Aaron , Thou and thy sons and thy father’s house with thee shall bear the iniquity of the sanctuary : and thou and thy sons with thee shall bear the iniquity of your priesthood .

 

2. 너는 네 형제 레위 지파 곧 네 조상의 지파를 데려다가 너와 합동시켜 너를 섬기게 하고 너와 네 아들들은 증거의 장막 앞에 있을 것이니라

  And thy brethren also of the tribe of Levi , the tribe of thy father , bring thou with thee, that they may be joined unto thee, and minister unto thee: but thou and thy sons with thee shall minister before the tabernacle of witness .

 

3. 레위인은 네 직무와 장막의 모든 직무를 지키려니와 성소의 기구와 단에는 가까이 못하리니 두렵건대 그들과 너희가 죽을까 하노라

  And they shall keep thy charge , and the charge of all the tabernacle : only they shall not come nigh the vessels of the sanctuary and the altar , that neither they, nor ye also, die .

 

4. 레위인은 너와 합동하여 장막의 모든 일과 회막의 직무를 지킬 것이요 외인은 너희에게 가까이 못할 것이니라

  And they shall be joined unto thee, and keep the charge of the tabernacle of the congregation , for all the service of the tabernacle : and a stranger shall not come nigh unto you.

 

5. 이와 같이 너희는 성소의 직무와 단의 직무를 지키라 그리하면 여호와의 진노가 다시는 이스라엘 자손에게 미치지 아니하리라

  And ye shall keep the charge of the sanctuary , and the charge of the altar : that there be no wrath any more upon the children of Israel .

 

6. 보라 내가 이스라엘 자손 중에서 너희 형제 레위인을 취하여 내게 돌리고 너희에게 선물로 주어 회막의 일을 하게 하였나니

  And I, behold, I have taken your brethren the Levites from among the children of Israel : to you they are given as a gift for the Lord , to do the service of the tabernacle of the congregation .

 

7. 너와 네 아들들은 단과 장 안의 모든 일에 대하여 제사장의 직분을 지켜 섬기라 내가 제사장의 직분을 너희에게 선물로 주었은즉 거기 가까이 하는 외인은 죽이울지니라

  Therefore thou and thy sons with thee shall keep your priest’s office for every thing of the altar , and within the vail ; and ye shall serve : I have given your priest’s office unto you as a service of gift : and the stranger that cometh nigh shall be put to death .

 

8. 여호와께서 또 아론에게 이르시되 보라 내가 내 거제물 곧 이스라엘 자손의 거룩하게 한 모든 예물을 너로 주관하게 하고 네가 기름 부음을 받았음을 인하여 그것을 너와 네 아들들에게 영영한 응식으로 주노라

  And the Lord spake unto Aaron , Behold, I also have given thee the charge of mine heave offerings of all the hallowed things of the children of Israel ; unto thee have I given them by reason of the anointing , and to thy sons , by an ordinance for ever .

 

9. 지성물 중에 불사르지 않은 것은 네 것이라 그들이 내게 드리는 모든 예물의 모든 소제와 속죄제와 속건 제물은 다 지극히 거룩한즉 너와 네 아들들에게 돌리리니

  This shall be thine of the most holy things , reserved from the fire : every oblation of theirs, every meat offering of theirs, and every sin offering of theirs, and every trespass offering of theirs, which they shall render unto me, shall be most holy for thee and for thy sons .

 

10. 지극히 거룩하게 여김으로 먹으라 이는 네게 성물인즉 남자들이 다 먹을지니라

  In the most holy place shalt thou eat it; every male shall eat it: it shall be holy unto thee.

 

11. 내게 돌릴 것이 이것이니 곧 이스라엘 자손의 드리는 거제물과 모든 요제물이라 내가 그것을 너와 네 자손에게 영영한 응식으로 주었은즉 네 집의 정결한 자마다 먹을 것이니라

  And this is thine; the heave offering of their gift , with all the wave offerings of the children of Israel : I have given them unto thee, and to thy sons and to thy daughters with thee, by a statute for ever : every one that is clean in thy house shall eat of it.

 

12. 그들이 여호와께 드리는 첫 소산 곧 제일 좋은 기름과 제일 좋은 포도주와 곡식을 네게 주었은즉

  All the best of the oil , and all the best of the wine , and of the wheat , the firstfruits of them which they shall offer unto the Lord , them have I given thee.

 

13. 그들이 여호와께 드리는 그 땅 처음 익은 모든 열매는 네 것이니 네 집에 정결한 자마다 먹을 것이라

  And whatsoever is first ripe in the land , which they shall bring unto the Lord , shall be thine; every one that is clean in thine house shall eat of it.

 

14. 이스라엘 중에서 특별히 드린 모든 것은 네 것이 되리라

  Every thing devoted in Israel shall be thine.

 

15. 여호와께 드리는 모든 생물의 처음 나는 것은 사람이나 짐승이나 다 네 것이로되 사람의 처음 난 것은 반드시 대속할 것이요 부정한 짐승의 처음 난 것도 대속할 것이며

  Every thing that openeth the matrix in all flesh , which they bring unto the Lord , whether it be of men or beasts , shall be thine: nevertheless the firstborn of man shalt thou surely redeem , and the firstling of unclean beasts shalt thou redeem .

 

16. 그 사람을 속할 때에는 난지 일 개월 이후에 네가 정한 대로 성소의 세겔을 따라 은 다섯 세겔로 속하라 한 세겔은 이십 게라니라

  And those that are to be redeemed from a month old shalt thou redeem , according to thine estimation , for the money of five shekels , after the shekel of the sanctuary , which is twenty gerahs .

 

17. 오직 소의 처음 난 것이나 양의 처음 난 것이나 염소의 처음 난 것은 속하지 말지니 그것들은 거룩한즉 그 피는 단에 뿌리고 그 기름은 불살라 여호와께 향기로운 화제로 드릴 것이며

  But the firstling of a cow , or the firstling of a sheep , or the firstling of a goat , thou shalt not redeem ; they are holy : thou shalt sprinkle their blood upon the altar , and shalt burn their fat for an offering made by fire , for a sweet savour unto the Lord .

 

18. 그 고기는 네게 돌릴지니 흔든 가슴과 우편 넓적다리 같이 네게 돌릴 것이니라

  And the flesh of them shall be thine, as the wave breast and as the right shoulder are thine.

 

19. 이스라엘 자손이 여호와께 거제로 드리는 모든 성물은 내가 영영한 응식으로 너와 네 자녀에게 주노니 이는 여호와 앞에 너와 네 후손에게 변하지 않는 소금 언약이니라

  All the heave offerings of the holy things , which the children of Israel offer unto the Lord , have I given thee, and thy sons and thy daughters with thee, by a statute for ever : it is a covenant of salt for ever before the Lord unto thee and to thy seed with thee.

 

20. 여호와께서 또 아론에게 이르시되 너는 이스라엘 자손의 땅의 기업도 없겠고 그들 중에 아무 분깃도 없을 것이나 나는 이스라엘 자손 중에 네 분깃이요 네 기업이니라

  And the Lord spake unto Aaron , Thou shalt have no inheritance in their land , neither shalt thou have any part among them: I am thy part and thine inheritance among the children of Israel .

 

21. 내가 이스라엘의 십일조를 레위 자손에게 기업으로 다 주어서 그들의 하는 일 곧 회막에서 하는 일을 갚나니

  And, behold, I have given the children of Levi all the tenth in Israel for an inheritance , for their service which they serve , even the service of the tabernacle of the congregation .

 

22. 이후로는 이스라엘 자손이 회막에 가까이 말 것이라 죄를 당하여 죽을까 하노라

  Neither must the children of Israel henceforth come nigh the tabernacle of the congregation , lest they bear sin , and die .

 

23. 오직 레위인은 회막에서 봉사하며 자기들의 죄를 담당할 것이요 이스라엘 자손 중에는 기업이 없을 것이니 이는 너희의 대대에 영원한 율례라

  But the Levites shall do the service of the tabernacle of the congregation , and they shall bear their iniquity : it shall be a statute for ever throughout your generations , that among the children of Israel they have no inheritance .

 

24. 이스라엘 자손이 여호와께 거제로 드리는 십일조를 레위인에게 기업으로 준 고로 내가 그들에 대하여 말하기를 이스라엘 자손 중에 기업이 없을 것이라 하였노라

  But the tithes of the children of Israel , which they offer as an heave offering unto the Lord , I have given to the Levites to inherit : therefore I have said unto them, Among the children of Israel they shall have no inheritance .

 

25. 여호와께서 모세에게 일러 가라사대

  And the Lord spake unto Moses , saying ,

 

26. 너는 레위인에게 고하여 그에게 이르라 내가 이스라엘 자손에게 취하여 너희에게 기업으로 준 십일조를 너희가 그들에게서 취할 때에 그 십일조의 십일조를 거제로 여호와께 드릴 것이라

  Thus speak unto the Levites , and say unto them, When ye take of the children of Israel the tithes which I have given you from them for your inheritance , then ye shall offer up an heave offering of it for the Lord , even a tenth part of the tithe .

 

27. 내가 너희의 거제물을 타작 마당에서 받드는 곡물과 포도즙 틀에서 받드는 즙 같이 여기리니

  And this your heave offering shall be reckoned unto you, as though it were the corn of the threshingfloor , and as the fulness of the winepress .

 

28. 너희는 이스라엘 자손에게서 받는 모든 것의 십일조 중에서 여호와께 거제로 드리고 여호와께 드린 그 거제물은 제사장 아론에게 돌리되

  Thus ye also shall offer an heave offering unto the Lord of all your tithes , which ye receive of the children of Israel ; and ye shall give thereof the Lord’s heave offering to Aaron the priest .

 

29. 너희의 받은 모든 예물 중에서 너희는 그 아름다운 것 곧 거룩하게 한 부분을 취하여 여호와께 거제로 드릴지니라

  Out of all your gifts ye shall offer every heave offering of the Lord , of all the best thereof, even the hallowed part thereof out of it.

 

30. 이러므로 너는 그들에게 이르라 너희가 그 중에서 아름다운 것을 취하여 드리고 남은 것은 너희 레위인에게는 타작 마당의 소출과 포도즙 틀의 소출 같이 되리니

  Therefore thou shalt say unto them, When ye have heaved the best thereof from it, then it shall be counted unto the Levites as the increase of the threshingfloor , and as the increase of the winepress .

 

31. 너희와 너희 권속이 어디서든지 이것을 먹을 수 있음은 이는 회막에서 일한 너희의 보수임이니라

  And ye shall eat it in every place , ye and your households : for it is your reward for your service in the tabernacle of the congregation .

 

32. 너희가 그 중 아름다운 것을 받들어 드린즉 이로 인하여 죄를 지지 아니할 것이라 너희는 이스라엘 자손의 성물을 더럽히지 말라 그리하면 죽지 아니하리라

【민18:1 JFB】민18:1-7. The Charge of the Priests and Levites.
1. the Lord said unto Aaron, Thou and thy sons and thy father's house with thee shall bear the iniquity of the sanctuary—Security is here given to the people from the fears expressed (민17:12), by the responsibility of attending to all sacred things being devolved upon the priesthood, together with the penalties incurred through neglect; and thus the solemn responsibilities annexed to their high dignity, of having to answer not only for their own sins, but also for the sins of the people, were calculated in a great measure to remove all feeling of envy at the elevation of Aaron's family, when the honor was weighed in the balance with its burdens and dangers.

 

【민18:1 CWC】[THE WILDERNESS WANDERINGS]
"The wilderness was part of the necessary discipline of the redeemed people, but this was not true of the years of wandering. The Red Sea, Marah, Elim. Sinai were God's ways in Israel's development and have their counterpart in Christian experience; but from Kadesh-barnea to the Jordan all is for warning, and not imitation (고전10:1-11; 히3:17-19). There is a present rest of God, of which the Sabbath and Canaan were types into which believers may and therefore should immediately enter by faith, but alas, too many Christians never enter into it, and in a spiritual sense their carcasses fall in the wilderness. It is remarkable, that just when the people are turning in unbelief from the land, God should be giving directions (as in c. 15) for their conduct when they should enter it; but this is grace, and illustrates God's purpose in human redemption always." -- Scofield Bible. It is not for anything in us that God has redeemed us in His Son, but for the magnifying of His own Name, and hence he has the same reason for keeping us saved to the end that He has for saving us at the beginning. Read here 롬11:29 and 빌1:6.
The Chief Events.
The chief events of this section are the rebellion of Korah and his associates (16, 17), the death of Miriam and Aaron (20), and the miracle at Meribah (20), interspersed with particular laws and regulations of a Levitical chapter (15, 18, 19).
1. The Laws and Regulations, c. 15.
(1) Note that the sin of ignorance needs to be atoned for as well as other sins (15: 22-29), and God in His grace has provided for it. Christians who talk about possessing sinless perfection need forgiveness for such talk, for it is sin.
(2) Note the difference between ignorant and presumptuous sins, and the illustration furnished of the latter (30-36), compare also 시19:12, 13.
The law of the Sabbath was plain, and this transgression of it very aggravated. Remember in the punishing that Jehovah was acting not only as Israel's God, but King. Israel was a theocracy, whose Sovereign was Jehovah, which is not true of any other nation. This offense was not only a violation of a divine command in the ordinary sense, but a violation of the law of the realm. It was as Sovereign that God gave this order to execute the man.
2. The Great Rebellion, cc. 16, 17.
Who were its chief leaders (1)? How many joined, and who were they (2)? What was their grievance and their argument (3)? What test is proposed by Moses (5-7)? How does he describe the ambition of Korah (8-11)? What indicates that the rebellion of the other leaders was instigated by jealously of the supremacy of Moses (12-14)?
How is God's wrath expressed (21)? And His punishment (32-35)? What exhibition of popular passion follows (42)? Its punishment (49)? How does Aaron's action (48) typify Christ?
This controversy required a decisive settlement, for which reason, as we see in the next chapter, a miracle was wrought. In a word, what was that miracle?
3. The Ordinance of the Red Heifer, c. 19.
Among the regulations of this section that of the red heifer stands out with peculiar distinctness.
Was the heifer to be presented by an individual or the whole congregation (2)? This indicates that it was to be used for the general good. What must be its color? Just why is not known, unless it be in opposition to the superstition of the Egyptians who sacrificed red bulls and oxen, but never red heifers or cows which were sacred to their goddess Isis.
What ritualistic action of the priest showed that he was presenting an expiatory sacrifice (3, 4)? How does v. 6 suggest the ordinance for cleansing the lepers? (레14:4-7.)
The subsequent verses of the chapter show the uses to which this "water of separation" was to be applied. For example, in case of a death. -- "As in every family which sustained a bereavement, the members of the household became defiled, so an immense population, where instances of mortality and other cases of uncleanness would be daily occurring, the water of separation must have been in constant requisition."
We need to remember that the defilement here to be remedied as, in some other cases we have met with, implied no moral guilt but had only a ceremonial and typical significance. It was part of that system which God would teach Israel, and through Israel the whole world, the essential nature of holiness.
4. The Miracle at Meribah, c. 20.
If you compare v. 1 with vv. 22 and 23, and then chapter 33:38, you will see that between the last verse of the preceding and the first verse of this chapter "there is a long and undescribed interval of Z7 years." In other words, "in this book only the most important incidents are recorded, and these are confined chiefly to the first and second and the last years of the wanderings in the wilderness."
Where were the people now (1)? This was their second arrival there after an interval of 38 years (compare 신2:16). The old generation had nearly all died, and the new was now encamped here with the view of soon entering Canaan.
We need not suppose that during all this time the people moved about in a compact mass without any employment or object, but that their life was similar to nomads generally.
What event occurred at Kadesh at this time (1)? What physical necessity arose (2)? How did the people deport themselves (3-5)? Where as usual, did their leaders take refuge (6)? What were they commanded to do (8)? What "rod" is meant (compa계17:10)? How is the hasty and passionate conduct of Moses illustrated (10)? Compare 시106:33. He had been directed to speak to the rock, but what did he do? How were the leaders rebuked (12)?
Contrast this miracle with the one in 출17:5-7. The rock in both instances typified Christ (고전10:4); but Christ once smitten, needs not to be smitten (crucified) again. Moses' act not only displayed impatience and perhaps vain glory, but (in type) made of none effect one of the most vital doctrines of grace. The believer from whom the divine blessing has been withheld through sin needs not another sacrifice. It is for him to confess his sins according to 1 요1:9, and receive cleansing and forgiveness. This is the symbolism of speaking to the rock instead of smiting it a second time.

 

【민18:1 MHCC】The people complained of their difficulty and peril in drawing near to God. God here gives them to understand, that the priests should come near for them. Aaron would see reason not to be proud of his preferment, when he considered the great care and charge upon him. Be not high-minded, but fear. The greater the trust of work and power that is committed to us, the greater danger there is of betraying that trust. This is a good reason why we should neither envy others' honours, nor desire high places.

 

【민18:2 JFB】2-7. thy brethren also of the tribe of Levi—The departments of the sacred office, to be filled respectively by the priests and Levites, are here assigned to each. To the priests was committed the charge of the sanctuary and the altar, while the Levites were to take care of everything else about the tabernacle. The Levites were to attend the priests as servants—bestowed on them as "gifts" to aid in the service of the tabernacle—while the high and dignified office of the priesthood was a "service of gift." "A stranger," that is, one, neither a priest nor a Levite, who should intrude into any departments of the sacred office, should incur the penalty of death.

 

【민18:8 JFB】민18:8-20. The Priests' Portion.
8-13. the Lord spake unto Aaron, Behold, I also have given thee the charge of my heave offerings—A recapitulation is made in this passage of certain perquisites specially appropriated to the maintenance of the priests. They were parts of the votive and freewill offerings, including both meat and bread, wine and oil, and the first-fruits, which formed a large and valuable item.

 

【민18:8 MHCC】All believers are spiritual priests, and God has promised to take care of them. Godliness has the promise of the life that now is. And from the provision here made for the priests, the apostle shows that it is the duty of christian churches to maintain their ministers. Scandalous maintenance makes scandalous ministers. The priests were to be wholly devoted to their ministry, not diverted from it, or disturbed in it, by worldly care or business. Also, that they might be examples of living by faith, not only in God's providence, but in his ordinances. The best should be offered for the first-fruits unto the Lord. Those who think to save, by putting God off with the refuse, deceive themselves, for God is not mocked.

 

【민18:14 JFB】14. Every thing devoted in Israel shall be thine—provided it was adapted for food or consumable by use; for the gold and silver vessels that were dedicated as the spoils of victory were not given to the priests, but for the use and adornment of the sacred edifice.

 

【민18:19 JFB】19. it is a covenant of salt—that is, a perpetual ordinance. This figurative form of expression was evidently founded on the conservative property of salt, which keeps meat from corruption; and hence it became an emblem of inviolability and permanence. It is a common phrase among Oriental people, who consider the eating of salt a pledge of fidelity, binding them in a covenant of friendship. Hence the partaking of the altar meats, which were appropriated to the priests on condition of their services and of which salt formed a necessary accompaniment, was naturally called "a covenant of salt" (레2:13).

 

【민18:20 MHCC】As Israel was a people not to be numbered among the nations, so Levi was a tribe to be distinguished from the rest. Those who have God for their Inheritance and their Portion for ever, ought to look with holy contempt and indifference upon the possessions of this world. The Levites were to give God his dues out of their tithes, as well as the Israelites out of their increase. See, in ver. #(31), the way to have comfort in all our worldly possessions, so as to bear no sin by reason of them. 1. We must be sure that what we have is got honestly and in the service of God. That meat is best eaten which is first earned; but if any will not work, neither shall he eat, 살후3:10. 2. We must be sure that God has his dues out of it. We have the comfort of our substance, when we have honoured the Lord with it. Ye shall bear no sin by reason of it, when ye have heaved the best from it. We should give alms of such things as we have, that all may be holy and comfortable to us.

 

【민18:21 JFB】민18:21-32. The Levites' Portion.
21, 22. I have given the children of Levi all the tenth in Israel for an inheritance, for their service which they serve—Neither the priests nor the Levites were to possess any allotments of land but to depend entirely upon Him who liberally provided for them out of His own portion; and this law was subservient to many important purposes—such as that, being exempted from the cares and labors of worldly business, they might be exclusively devoted to His service; that a bond of mutual love and attachment might be formed between the people and the Levites, who, as performing religious services for the people, derived their subsistence from them; and further, that being the more easily dispersed among the different tribes, they might be more useful in instructing and directing the people.

 

【민18:23 JFB】23. But the Levites shall do the service of the tabernacle of the congregation: they shall bear their iniquity—They were to be responsible for the right discharge of those duties that were assigned to them, and consequently to bear the penalty that was due to negligence or carelessness in the guardianship of the holy things.

 

【민18:26 JFB】26. the Levites … offer … a tenth of the tithe—Out of their own they were to pay tithes to the priests equally as the people gave to them. The best of their tithes was to be assigned to the priests, and afterwards they enjoyed the same liberty to make use of the remainder that other Israelites had of the produce of their threshing-floors and wine-presses.
