EXODUS 38:21 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“This is the sum of the tabernacle, even of the tabernacle of testimony, as it was counted, according to the commandment of Moses, for the service of the Levites, by the hand of Ithamar, son to Aaron the priest.”
These are the amounts of the materials used for the tabernacle, the tabernacle of the covenant law, which were recorded at Moses' command by the Levites under the direction of Ithamar son of Aaron, the priest. The accounting section begins with the formal identification of who kept the records: the Levites under Ithamar. The record-keeping is itself a covenant act: the materials that Israel gave from willing hearts are documented so stewardship can be verified. The tabernacle's construction is transparent. What the community gave generously, the leadership accounts for faithfully.
