Aliya 4
Or, Nadab et Abihou moururent devant le Seigneur, pour avoir apporté devant lui un feu profane, dans le désert de Sinaï; ils n’avaient point eu d’enfants. Mais Eléazar et Ithamar fonctionnèrent sous les yeux d’Aaron, leur père.
Pour Aaron et ses fils, recommande-leur de veiller sur leur ministère; le profane qui y prendrait part serait frappé de mort."
Car tout premier-né m’appartient: le jour où j’ai frappé tous les premiers-nés du pays d’Égypte, j’ai consacré à moi tout premier-né en Israël, depuis l’homme jusqu’au bétail, ils m’appartiennent, à moi l’Éternel."
Aliya 5
Aliya 6
Or, la somme des premiers-nés mâles, comptés par noms depuis l’âge d’un mois et au-delà, dans ce recensement, fut de vingt-deux mille deux cent soixante-treize.
Et Moïse remit le montant du rachat à Aaron et à ses fils, sur l’ordre de l’Éternel, ainsi que l’Éternel l’avait prescrit à Moïse.

Commentaires sur Nombres 3:45
Rashi
English
And the animals of the Levites . . .etc. The animals of the Levites did not redeem the firstlings of the Israelites’ clean (i.e., kosher) animals, but [they did redeem] the firstlings of their donkeys. And a single sheep belonging to a Levite released numerous of the Israelites’ donkey firstlings. The proof is that Scripture counts the extra men, but did not count the extra animals.

Ramban (Nachmanides)
English
TAKE THE LEVITES INSTEAD OF ALL THE FIRSTBORN AMONG THE CHILDREN OF ISRAEL. The firstborns had become sanctified to G-d from the time that He commanded Sanctify unto Me all the firstborn … among the children of Israel etc. There were thus many firstborns in Israel who had not been redeemed until now, since it had not yet been said who would “redeem” them, for it was only now that the priests became sanctified, and [Israel] had not yet been commanded about the gifts of the priesthood. Thus they [the firstborns] continued without restriction in their sanctity, and it is possible that they performed the Service of the offerings, as our Rabbis have said.
The correct opinion appears to me to be that not all these firstborns were born in the desert in one year, for the people did not increase there so rapidly [that there should have been twenty-two thousand firstborns in one year, corresponding to the twenty-two thousand Levites, with an excess over the Levites of two hundred and seventy-three]. Rather, all firstborns of Israel [alive at that time, even those born many years previously] were counted, for they were all sanctified, as I have explained there. Now, He exchanged them for the Levites, and this was their “redemption,” and He commanded to redeem those that exceeded [the number of the Levites by means of each one giving five shekels]. And He gave the redemption-money to Aaron and his sons, as is the commandment for all generations [that a firstborn son be redeemed by giving five shekels to a priest].
