עבדת עבדה. כאשר פרשתי והנה טעם כל הפקודים שהיו מבן ל' שנה: THE WORK OF SERVICE. This is to be understood as I have already explained.42In his comments on verse 15, I.E. hints that the term work of service applies to the carrying of the tent and the tabernacle, which was the work assigned to the sons of Gershon and Merari, while the term the work of bearing burdens refers to the work done by the sons of Kohath (Weiser). Now the meaning of All those that were numbered (v. 46) is, all those from thirty years old that were numbered.43In other words, our verse is a continuation of verse 46.
