Nehemiah 10:39 Meaning and Commentary

Nehemiah 10:39

For the children of Israel, and the children of Levi, shall
bring the offering of the corn, of the new wine, and the oil, unto
the chambers
In the temple:

where are the vessels of the sanctuary;
to put the said things into, that they might be ready at hand when wanted, as they often were for the meat and drink offerings:

and the priests that minister, and the porters, and the singers;
who dwelt there when in their ministrations, and were supported by the above tithes and gifts:

and we will not forsake the house of our God;
neither forsake the assembling themselves there for worship, nor neglect to make the necessary provisions for the service of it, as they had too much done, but now resolve for the future to behave better.

38 And the priest the son of Aaron shall be with the Levites in the tithe of the Levite: and the Levites shall bring up the tenth part of tithe to the house of our God, into the treasuries of the house of God.
