2 Chronicles 29:28 Meaning and Commentary

2 Chronicles 29:28

And all the congregation worshipped
Bowed their heads as a token of divine adoration: and the singers sang;
both with vocal and instrumental music, who were the Levites: and the trumpeters sounded;
their silver trumpets; these were the priests: and all this continued until the burnt offering was finished;
with all appertaining to it, the meat and drink offerings.

26 And the deacons stood, and held the organs of David; and priests held [the] trumps. (And the Levites stood ready with the instruments of David, and the priests with the trumpets.)
27 And Hezekiah commanded, that they should offer burnt sacrifices upon the altar; and when burnt sacrifices were offered, they began to sing praisings to the Lord, and to sound with trumps, and with diverse organs, which David, king of Israel, had made ready to sound with. (And Hezekiah commanded, that they should offer burnt sacrifices upon the altar; and when the burnt sacrifices were offered, they began to sing praises to the Lord, and to sound with the trumpets, and the other instruments, which David, the king of Israel, had made to sound with.)
