Explanation

• Day 57: Numbers 5;ndash;6. Issues of holiness needed more clarification and regulation. This is a possible appendix to Leviticus.
• Day 58: Numbers 3–4. Moses chose the Levites to serve the tabernacle They recorded the offerings for the construction of the tabernacle (Exodus 38:21) so it is likely, though not recorded in Exodus, that they were already chosen and dedicated to help Aaron and his sons.
• Day 59: Numbers 7:1–8:4. The Israelites set up the Tabernacle the first day of the first month of the second year after God delivered the Israelites from Egypt. (Exodus 40:17) For the next twelve days, each of the twelve tribes gave offerings, and they brought carts for the Levites to use.
• Day 60: Numbers 9:1-3. The second Passover was the first month, fourteenth- day of the second year.
• Day 61: Number 1–2, 10. A second census for a military draft began the first day of the second month of the second year (Numbers 1:1). After that, the twelve tribes arranged themselves around the camp of the Levites and the tabernacle. Then, the twentieth day of the second month of the second year the Israelites headed out from Sinai (Numbers 10:11).
