In Numbers 8:15, after being offered as an offering, the Levites begin their tabernacle service—a direct sequential instruction.

Numbers 18:6 reiterates that the Levites are given as a gift to the LORD for service, aligning with their presentation as a wave offering here.

In 1 Chronicles 15:2, David affirms that only Levites should carry the ark—echoing their separation for service as in Numbers 8:13.
