2 Chronicles 35:15

15 The singers, the descendants of Asaph, were at their stations according to the command of David, Asaph, Heman, and Jeduthun the king’s seer. And the gatekeepers at each gate did not need to leave their posts, because their fellow Levites made preparations 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 They roasted the Passover animals on the fire according to the regulation, and they boiled the other holy offerings in pots, kettles, and bowls and quickly brought them to all the people.
14 Afterward, they made preparations for themselves and for the priests, since the priests, the descendants of Aaron, were offering up burnt offerings and fat until nightfall. So the Levites made preparations for themselves and for the priests, the descendants of Aaron.
15 The singers, the descendants of Asaph, were at their stations according to the command of David, Asaph, Heman, and Jeduthun the king’s seer. And the gatekeepers at each gate did not need to leave their posts, because their fellow Levites made preparations for them.
16 So on that day the entire service of the LORD was carried out for celebrating the Passover and offering burnt offerings on the altar of the LORD, according to the command of King Josiah.
17 The Israelites who were present also observed the Passover at that time, as well as the Feast of Unleavened Bread for seven days.
