So the service was prepared
Every thing was got ready both for the passover and the feast of unleavened bread, for all sorts of people, rich and poor:

2 Chronicles 35:10 In-Context

8 His officials also gave freely. They gave to the people and the priests and Levites. Hilkiah, Zechariah and Jehiel were in charge of God's temple. They gave the priests 2,600 Passover lambs and 300 head of cattle.

9 Conaniah and his brothers Shemaiah and Nethanel also gave offerings. So did Hashabiah, Jeiel and Jozabad. All of them were the leaders of the Levites. They gave 5,000 Passover lambs and 500 head of cattle for the Levites.

10 The Passover service was arranged. The priests stood in their places. The Levites were in their groups. That's what the king had ordered.

11 The Passover lambs were killed. The priests sprinkled the blood that had been handed to them. The Levites skinned the animals.

12 They set the burnt offerings to one side. Those offerings were for the smaller family groups of the people to offer to the Lord. That's what was written in the Scroll of Moses. The Levites did the same thing with the cattle.
