Thematic Bible: Ministers appointed to offer, in public


Thematic Bible



David appointed some of the Levites to be ministers before the ark of the Lord, to celebrate the Lord God of Israel, and to give thanks and praise to Him.

On that day David decreed for the first time that thanks be given to the Lord by Asaph and his relatives:

They are also to stand every morning to give thanks and praise to the Lord, and likewise in the evening.

Hezekiah reestablished the divisions of the priests and Levites for the burnt offerings and fellowship offerings, for ministry, for giving thanks, and for praise in the gates of the camp of the Lord, each division corresponding to his service among the priests and Levites.
