4:21-28 The men of the Gershonite clan (see 3:21-26) were responsible for general service and carrying loads (4:24). This involved handling the curtains and coverings, ropes, and related equipment that was less central to Israel’s worship. Their duties focused on the Tabernacle in general instead of on the sacred objects of the inner sanctuary that were the responsibility of Kohath’s clan.
