Contextual Overview
24 These were the clans and families of the tribe of Levi. Those who were twenty years and older were assigned to work at the Lord 's temple. 25 David said: The Lord God of Israel has given his people peace, and he will live in Jerusalem forever. 26 And so, the Levites won't need to move the sacred tent and the things used for worship from place to place. 27 From now on, all Levites at least twenty years old 28 will serve the Lord by helping Aaron's descendants do their work at the temple, by keeping the courtyards and rooms of the temple clean, and by making sure that everything used in worship stays pure. 29 They will also be in charge of the sacred loaves of bread, the flour for the grain sacrifices, the thin wafers, any offerings to be baked, and the flour mixed with olive oil. These Levites will weigh and measure these offerings. 30 Every morning and evening, the Levites are to give thanks to the Lord and sing praises to him. 31 They must also give thanks and sing praises when sacrifices are offered on each Sabbath, as well as during New Moon Festivals and other religious feasts. There must always be enough Levites on duty at the temple to do everything that needs to be done. 32 They were once in charge of taking care of the sacred tent; now they are responsible for the temple and for helping Aaron's descendants.
Bible Verse Review
from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge
for the showbread: It was the priests' office to place this bread before the Lord; and it was their privilege to feed on the old loaves when they were replaced by the new. 1 Chronicles 9:31, 1 Chronicles 9:32, Exodus 25:30, Leviticus 24:5-9, 1 Kings 7:48, 2 Chronicles 13:11, 2 Chronicles 29:18, Nehemiah 10:33, Matthew 12:4, Hebrews 9:2
the fine flour: 1 Chronicles 9:29-34, Leviticus 6:20-23
unleavened: Leviticus 2:4-7, Leviticus 7:9
pan: or, flat plate
for all manner of measure: The standards of all weights and measures were in the sanctuary; and therefore the Levites had the inspection of weights and measures of every kind, that no fraud might in this way be committed. Honesty is inseparably connected with piety; and hence the Levites, being sufficiently numerous, were employed to superintend the former, as well as the latter. Leviticus 19:35, Leviticus 19:36, Numbers 3:50
Reciprocal: Leviticus 24:8 - General
Gill's Notes on the Bible
Both for the shewbread,.... Also to make and get that ready every week for the priests to set on the shewbread table, when they took off the other that had stood a week, see 1 Chronicles 9:32
and for the fine flour for meat offering, and for the unleavened cakes, and for that which is baked in the pan, and for that which is fried; to deliver out the flour of which these several things were made, see 1 Chronicles 9:31, and Leviticus 2:1,
and for all manner of measures and size; as the hin and the ephah, and the several parts of them for things both liquid and dry, which were in their keeping, and according to which they gave out the proper quantity of oil, and wine, and fine flour, upon occasion.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 1 Chronicles 23:29. Both for the shew-bread — It was the priests' office to place this bread before the Lord, and it was their privilege to feed on the old loaves when they were replaced by the new. Some of the rabbins think that the priests sowed, reaped, ground, kneaded, and baked the grain of which the shew-bread was made. This appears to be a conceit. Jerome, in his comment on Malachi 1:6, mentions it in these words: "Panes propositionis quos, juxta traditiones Hebraicas, ipsi serere, ipsi demetere, ipsi molere, ipsi coquere debebatis."
For all manner of measure and size — The standards of all weights and measures were kept at the sanctuary, and by those there deposited all the weights and measures of the land were to be tried. Exodus 30:13.
