2 Chronicles 35:15

15 Likewise, the singers, the sons of Asaph, were in their place, according to the commandment of David and Asaph and Heman and Jeduthun, the king’s seer; and the porters waited at every gate; it was not necessary for them to depart from their ministry, for their brethren, the Levites, prepared for them.

2 Chronicles 35:15 Meaning and Commentary

2 Chronicles 35:15

And the singers the sons of Asaph were in their place
In the court of the priests, singing and playing on their instruments while the sacrifices were offering:

according to the commandment of David, and Asaph, and Heman, and
Jeduthun the king's seer;
the same with Ethan; and everyone were seers, as Jarchi interprets it, that is, the three last:

and the porters waited at every gate;
such of the Levites as were in, that post and office:

they might not depart from their service;
to let people in and out, that came for their passover lamb, and share in their other offerings:

for their brethren the Levites prepared for them;
because they were not at leisure to prepare for themselves.

2 Chronicles 35:15 In-Context

13 And they roasted the passover with fire according to the ordinance, but that which had been sanctified, they cooked in pots and in caldrons and in pans and divided them speedily among all the people.

14 And afterward they prepared for themselves and for the priests because the priests, the sons of Aaron, were occupied in the sacrifice of the burnt offerings and the fat until night; therefore, the Levites prepared for themselves and for the priests, the sons of Aaron.

15 Likewise, the singers, the sons of Asaph, were in their place, according to the commandment of David and Asaph and Heman and Jeduthun, the king’s seer; and the porters waited at every gate; it was not necessary for them to depart from their ministry, for their brethren, the Levites, prepared for them.

16 So all the service of the LORD was prepared the same day, to keep the passover and to sacrifice the burnt offerings upon the altar of the LORD, according to the commandment of King Josiah.

17 And the sons of Israel that were present kept the passover at that time and the solemn feast of unleavened bread for seven days.
