2 Chronicles 29:22 Meaning and Commentary

2 Chronicles 29:22

So they killed the bullocks
The seven bullocks, that is, the priests killed them: and the priests received the blood;
into basins provided for that purpose: and sprinkled it on the altar;
according to the law of Moses, ( Leviticus 1:5 ) and so they did with the rams and lambs.

2 Chronicles 29:22 In-Context

20 Then King Hezekiah arose early and assembled the princes of the city and went up to the house of the LORD .
21 They brought seven bulls, seven rams, seven lambs and seven male goats for a sin offering for the kingdom, the sanctuary, and Judah. And he ordered the priests, the sons of Aaron, to offer them on the altar of the LORD .
22 So they slaughtered the bulls, and the priests took the blood and sprinkled it on the altar. They also slaughtered the rams and sprinkled the blood on the altar; they slaughtered the lambs also and sprinkled the blood on the altar.
23 Then they brought the male goats of the sin offering before the king and the assembly, and they laid their hands on them.
24 The priests slaughtered them and purged the altar with their blood to atone for all Israel, for the king ordered the burnt offering and the sin offering for all Israel.
