1. Chronik 26:15

Eastward were six Levites,.... The eastern gate, being the way of entrance into the temple, required more porters: northward four a day; in the daytime, or every day, where was the gate Teri or Tedi, Ch1 26:14, southward four a day: at the two gates of Huldah, Ch1 26:15 and toward Asuppim two and two; which were two gates, two at each gate, Ch1 26:15.

We have here an account of the business of the Levites. That tribe had made but a very small figure all the time of the judges, till Eli and Samuel appeared. But when David revived religion the Levites were, of all men, in the greatest reputation. And happy it was that they had Levites who were men of sense, fit to support the honour of their tribe. We have here an account, I. Of the Levites that were appointed to be porters (v. 1-19). II. Of those that were appointed to be treasurers and storekeepers (Ch1 26:20-28). III. Of those that were officers and judges in the country, and were entrusted with the administration of public affairs (Ch1 26:29-32).
