Numbers 4:19

Context
NETBible

but in order that they will live 1  and not die when they approach the most holy things, do this for them: Aaron and his sons will go in and appoint 2  each man 3  to his service and his responsibility.

XREF

Nu 4:4

NET © Notes

tn The word order is different in the Hebrew text: Do this…and they will live. Consequently, the verb “and they will live” is a perfect tense with a vav (ו) consecutive to express the future consequence of “doing this” for them.

tn The perfect tense with vav (ו) consecutive continues the instruction for Aaron.

tn The distributive sense is obtained by the repetition, “a man” and “a man.”
