Contextual Overview
1 Adonai said to Moshe, 2 "Tell El‘azar the son of Aharon the cohen to remove the fire pans from the fire, and scatter the smoldering coals at a distance, because they have become holy. 3 Also the fire pans of these men, whose sin cost them their lives, have become holy, because they were offered before Adonai . Therefore, have them hammered into plates to cover the altar. This will be a sign for the people of Isra'el." 4 El‘azar the cohen took the brass fire pans which the men who had been burned to death had offered, and they hammered them into a covering for the altar, 5 to remind the people of Isra'el that an ordinary person, not descended from Aharon, is not to approach and burn incense before Adonai , if he wants to avoid the fate of Korach and his group — as Adonai had said to him through Moshe. 6 But the very next day, the whole community of the people of Isra'el complained against Moshe and Aharon: "You have killed Adonai 's people!" 7 However, as the community was assembling against Moshe and Aharon, they looked in the direction of the tent of meeting and saw the cloud cover it and the glory of Adonai appear.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And thou shalt lay them up in the tabernacle of the congregation,.... In the most holy place:
before the testimony; that is, the ark in which the testimony or the law was; here they were laid as in the presence of God, who was in a miraculous way to decide the controversy by them, and put an end to it; for upon the ark was the mercy seat, over which were the cherubim, the seat of the divine Majesty, and where none could come at them, and where no fraud could be supposed to be committed:
where I will meet with you; not with the people in person, who might not go at any time into the most holy place; nor with Aaron, who only might go into it on the day of atonement; but with Moses, the chief ruler and representative of the whole body of the people, and who might go in there at any time, to consult with God about matters of moment and difficulty, and where the Lord had said he would meet him,
Exodus 25:22; and now would, in a miraculous way, clearly show him, and the people of Israel by him, who was the priest he had chosen of all the tribes.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
