Now on the fourth day
After their arrival at Jerusalem:
was the silver, and the gold, and the vessels, weighed in the house of
our God;
the temple, that it might be seen and known that the exact weight which had been deposited with them was now faithfully delivered:
this was done by the hand of Meremoth the son of Uriah the priest, and
with him was Eleazar the son of Phinehas;
these were priests:
and with them was Jozabad the son of Jeshua, and Noadiah the son of
Binnui, Levites;
two priests and two Levites; for since there were of both that were charged with the above things, it was proper there should be some of both, when weighed, that they might be witnesses of their fidelity.
