2 Chronicles 29:34

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

Summary

But the priests were too few, so that they could not flay all the burnt offerings: wherefore their brethren the Levites did help them, till the work was ended, and until the other priests had sanctified themselves: for the Levites were more upright in heart to sanctify themselves than the priests.

Their brethren

And they killed the passover, and the priests sprinkled the blood which they received of their hand, and the Levites flayed them.

And after that shall the Levites go in to do the service of the tent of meeting: and thou shalt cleanse them, and offer them for a wave-offering.

And they shall keep thy charge, and the charge of all the Tent: only they shall not come nigh unto the vessels of the sanctuary and unto the altar, that they die not, neither they, nor ye.

For the levites

For they could not keep it at that time, because the priests had not sanctified themselves in sufficient number, neither had the people gathered themselves together to Jerusalem.

Upright

I know also, my God, that thou triest the heart, and hast pleasure in uprightness. As for me, in the uprightness of my heart I have willingly offered all these things: and now have I seen with joy thy people, that are present here, offer willingly unto thee.

My shield is with God, Who saveth the upright in heart.

I will wash my hands in innocency: So will I compass thine altar, O Jehovah;

For judgment shall return unto righteousness; And all the upright in heart shall follow it.
