The four chief porters who were over all the two hundred and twelve, and had one over them, ( 1 Chronicles 9:17 ) , these were never changed, nor went into the country villages; but were always upon the spot, and in their office, superintending the rest:

and were over the chambers and treasuries of the house of God;

1 Chronicles 9:26 In-Context

24 The gatekeepers were on the four sides, to the east, west, north and south.

25 Their relatives in their villages were to come in every seven days from time to time to be with them;

26 for the four chief gatekeepers who were Levites, were in an office of trust, and were over the chambers and over the treasuries in the house of God.

27 They spent the night around the house of God, because the watch was committed to them; and they were in charge of opening it morning by morning.

28 Now some of them had charge of the utensils of service, for they counted them when they brought them in and when they took them out.
