* And Eleazar #El #azar # the son of Aaron the priest shall be chief over the chief of the Levites , and have the oversight of them that keep the charge of the sanctuary . * Of Merari was the family of the Mahlites , and the family of the Mushites : these are the families of Merari . * And those that were numbered of them , according to the number of all the males , from a month old and upward ma #al #, were six thousand and two hundred me #ah #. * And the chief of the house of the father of the families of Merari was Zuriel the son of Abihail : these shall pitch on the side of the tabernacle northward . * And under the custody and charge of the sons of Merari shall be the boards of the tabernacle , and the bars thereof , and the pillars thereof , and the sockets thereof , and all the vessels thereof , and all that serveth thereto , * And the pillars of the court round about , and their sockets , and their pins , and their cords . * But those that encamp before the tabernacle toward the east , even before the tabernacle of the congregation eastward , shall be Moses , and Aaron and his sons , keeping the charge of the sanctuary for the charge of the children of Israel Yisra #el #; and the stranger that cometh nigh shall be put to death .
