2 Chronicles 35:8 Meaning and Commentary

2 Chronicles 35:8

And his princes gave willingly to the people, to the priests
and the Levites
Besides, to some other families, they gave also to poor priests and Levites, which the king's bounty did not extend to; and these princes were not secular, but ecclesiastical princes, as follows:

Hilkiah, and Zechariah, and Jehiel, rulers of the house;
of the temple; Hilkiah was high priest, and the other two were chief priests, the one of the line of Eleazar, and the other of the line of Ithamar:

these gave unto the priests for the passover lambs;
2600 small cattle; which were lambs, or kids, or both:

and three hundred oxen;
for peace offerings on the seven days of unleavened bread, to feast upon.
