2 Chronicles 30:16

And they stood in their place after their manner, according to
the law of Moses the man of God

which they received of the hand of the Levites; the blood either of the burnt offerings before mentioned, or of the passover lambs, which the Levites slew, and received the blood of them in basins; and which the priests took of them, and sprinkled, not on the door posts of houses, as in Egypt, but on the altar round about, and which none but priests might do, ( Leviticus 1:5 ) .
