I would suggest explaining the number system that directly correlates to the rwx that is related to permissions and the chmod command that goes with it as the numbers and command are what you will deal with the most.

Good article with a good explanation, but I don't think you can explain one part of permissions without directly explaining one of the most important parts. But maybe this is a 2 part post?
