2 Chronicles 5:4 In-Context

2 Then Solomon assembled Israel's elders, all the tribal leaders, and the clan chieftains of Israel at Jerusalem to bring up the chest containing the LORD's covenant from Zion, David's City.
3 Everyone in Israel assembled before the king in the seventh month, during the festival.
4 When all Israel's elders had arrived, the Levites picked up the chest.
5 They brought the chest, the meeting tent, and all the holy objects that were in the tent. The priests and the Levites brought them up,
6 while King Solomon and the entire Israelite assembly that had joined him before the chest sacrificed countless sheep and oxen.
