Numbers 3:32

Context
3:32 Now the head of all the Levitical leaders 1  was Eleazar son of Aaron the priest. He was appointed over those who were responsible 2  for the sanctuary.

1 tn The Hebrew construction has “the leader of the leaders of” (וּנְשִׂיא נְשִׂיאֵי, unÿsinÿsiey).

2 tn Heb “the keepers of the responsibility” (שֹׁמְרֵי מִשְׁמֶרֶת, shomÿrey mishmeret). The participle is a genitive specifying the duty to which he was appointed (thing possessed); its cognate genitive emphasizes that their responsibility was over the holy place.
