2 Chronicles 11:13 In-Context

11 And he fortified the strong holds, and put captains in them, and store of provisions, and of oil and wine.

12 And in every several city [he put] shields and spears, and made them exceeding strong, having Judah and Benjamin on his side.

13 And the priests and the Levites that [were] in all Israel resorted to him from all their borders.

14 For the Levites left their suburbs and their possession, and came to Judah and Jerusalem: for Jeroboam and his sons had cast them off from executing the priest's office to the LORD:

15 And he ordained him priests for the high places, and for the devils, and for the calves which he had made.
