Numbers
Levites entered service to do the work at the tent of meeting at twenty-five years old. At fifty they were to withdraw from regular work but could assist their brothers in guarding duties. See Numbers 8:23–26.
23Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,
24This is that which belongs to the Levites: from twenty-five years old and upward they shall go in to wait on the service in the work of the tent of meeting:
25and from the age of fifty years they shall cease waiting on the work, and shall serve no more,
26but shall minister with their brothers in the tent of meeting, to keep the charge, and shall do no service. Thus shall you do to the Levites touching their charges.
