1 Chronicles 9:23 In-Context

21 Zechariah son of Meshelemiah was also a guard at the entrance to the Tent of the Lord's presence.
22 In all, 212 men were chosen as guards for the entrances and gates. They were registered according to the villages where they lived. It was King David and the prophet Samuel who had put their ancestors in these responsible positions.
23 They and their descendants continued to guard the gates to the Temple.
24 There was a gate facing in each direction, north, south, east, and west, and each had a chief guard.
25 These guards were assisted by their relatives, who lived in the villages and who had to take turns at guard duty for seven days at a time.
