“And the Kohathites set forward, bearing the sanctuary: and the other did set up the tabernacle against they came.”
Then the Kohathites, who carried the holy things, set out; and the tabernacle was set up before their arrival — the Kohathites (who carry the most holy items: the ark, table, lampstand, altars) depart after the Merarites and Gershonites have taken the structural elements. The tabernacle is reassembled before the Kohathites' arrival, ensuring that the holy objects are received into a prepared sanctuary space. The sequence ensures that the most sacred items are protected by preparatory assembly work.
