2 Chronicles 35:13

And they roasted the passover with fire, according to the
ordinance
Of the Lord by Moses, ( Exodus 12:8 )

but the other holy offerings;
which were the peace offerings:

sod they in pots, and in cauldrons, and pans;
which was forbid to be done with the passover lamb, but might with the other sacrifices, which were to be eaten, ( Exodus 12:9 )

and divided them speedily among all the people;
the parts which belonged to the offerer, who was the king; but he gave his part to the people, and therefore the Levites delivered them to them as soon as they could.

2 Chronicles 35:13 In-Context

11 They slaughtered the Passover animals, and while the priests sprinkled the blood received from their hand, the Levites skinned them.

12 Then they removed the burnt offerings that they might give them to the sections of the fathers' households of the lay people to present to the LORD , as it is written in the book of Moses. They did this also with the bulls.

13 So they roasted the Passover animals on the fire according to the ordinance, and they boiled the holy things in pots, in kettles, in pans, and carried them speedily to all the lay people.

14 Afterwards they prepared for themselves and for the priests, because the priests, the sons of Aaron, were offering the burnt offerings and the fat until night; therefore the Levites prepared for themselves and for the priests, the sons of Aaron.

15 The singers, the sons of Asaph, were also at their stations according to the command of David, Asaph, Heman, and Jeduthun the king's seer; and the gatekeepers at each gate did not have to depart from their service, because the Levites their brethren prepared for them.
