Offerings of the Princes of Israel for the Dedication of the Altar
The princes of the 12 tribes offer 6 covered wagons and 12 oxen to the Levites to aid them in their duties. Moses gives them to the sons of Gershom and Merari, but not Kohath, as Kohath is to carry the burden of the tabernacle on their shoulders. Nu. 7:1-9
