2 Chronicles 29:22

So they killed the bullocks
The seven bullocks, that is, the priests killed them: and the priests received the blood;

2 Chronicles 29:22 In-Context

20 Without delay King Hezekiah assembled the leading men of the city, and together they went to the Temple.
21 As an offering to take away the sins of the royal family and of the people of Judah and to purify the Temple, they took seven bulls, seven sheep, seven lambs, and seven goats. The king told the priests, who were descendants of Aaron, to offer the animals as sacrifices on the altar.
22 The priests killed the bulls first, then the sheep, and then the lambs, and sprinkled the blood of each sacrifice on the altar.
23 Finally they took the goats to the king and to the other worshipers, who laid their hands on them.
24 Then the priests killed the goats and poured their blood on the altar as a sacrifice to take away the sin of all the people, for the king had commanded that burnt offerings and sin offerings be made for all Israel.
