Exegesis
The phrases avodat halewiyim {עֲבֹדַת֙ הַלְוִּיִּ֔ם | ʿă-vô-ḏat hal-lĕ-wîy-yîm} ‘service of the Levites’ and be-yad ben-aharon hakohen {בְּיַד֙ בֶּן־אַהֲרֹ֖ן הַכֹּהֵֽן | bĕ-yad ben-ʾă-hă-rōn ha-kô-hên} ‘by the hand of Ithamar son of Aaron the priest’ specify cultic roles and supervisory authority. The English rendering preserves the double construct through apposition and conveys the passive nuance of the Hebrew Pual with a passive verb.
In context — Exodus 38:21
These are the records of the Tabernacle, the Tabernacle of Testimony , that were registered at the command of Moses for the service of the Levites by the hand of Ithamar, son of Aaron the priest.
