2 Chronicles 23:8

Context

23:8 The Levites and all the men of Judah 1  did just as Jehoiada the priest ordered. Each of them took his men, those who were on duty during the Sabbath as well as those who were off duty on the Sabbath. Jehoiada the priest did not release his divisions from their duties.

2 Chronicles 23:14

Context
23:14 Jehoiada the priest sent out the officers of the units of hundreds, who were in charge of the army, and ordered them, “Bring her outside the temple to the guards. 2  Put the sword to anyone who follows her.” The priest gave this order because he had decided she should not be executed in the Lord’s temple. 3

2 tn Heb “ranks.”

3 tn Heb “for the priest had said, ‘Do not put her to death in the house of the Lord.’”
