2 Cronache 23:2 Meaning and Commentary

2 Chronicles 23:9

And thou shalt give the Levites unto Aaron and to his sons,
&c.] To be their ministers and servants:

they [are] wholly given unto him out of the children of Israel:
even all of them entirely, none excepted; the whole tribe which were not in the priestly office; those were separated from the rest of the tribes of Israel, and appointed for the service of the priests: or they were "given, given" F17; which is repeated not only to show that they were wholly given, as we render it, but to denote the certainty of it, that they were really given; and especially to declare the freeness of the gift; the priests had them as free gifts, nor did they pay them any thing for, their service; they were maintained another way, namely, by the tithes of the people; and indeed the priests received a tithe out of the tithe of the Levites; so far were they from contributing any thing to their support, or in consideration of the service they did them.

2 Cronache 23:2 In-Context

1 Il settimo anno, Jehoiada, fattosi animo, fece lega coi capi-centurie Azaria figliuolo di Jeroham, Ismaele figliuolo di Johanan, Azaria figliuolo di Obed, Maaseia figliuolo di Adaia, ed Elishafat, figliuolo di Zicri.
2 Essi percorsero Giuda, radunarono i Leviti di tutte le città di Giuda e i capi delle case patriarcali d’Israele, e vennero a Gerusalemme.
3 E tutta la raunanza strinse lega col re nella casa di Dio. E Jehoiada disse loro: "Ecco, il figliuolo del re regnerà, come l’Eterno ha promesso relativamente ai figliuoli di Davide.
4 Ecco quello che voi farete: un terzo di quelli tra voi che entrano in servizio il giorno del sabato, sacerdoti e Leviti, starĂ  di guardia alle porte del tempio
5 un altro terzo starà nella casa del re, e l’altro terzo alla porta di Jesod. Tutto il popolo starà nei cortili della casa dell’Eterno.
