2 Chronicles 29:28 Meaning and Commentary

2 Chronicles 29:28

And all the congregation worshipped
Bowed their heads as a token of divine adoration: and the singers sang;

their silver trumpets; these were the priests: and all this continued until the burnt offering was finished;
with all appertaining to it, the meat and drink offerings.
