2 Chronicles 5
1. The dedicated treasures
2. The solemn induction of the ark into the oracle
11. God being praised, gives a visible sign of his favor














(5) These did the priests and the Levites bring up.--Heb., the priests the Levites (which some explain "the Levitical priests," as in Joshua 3:3) brought them up. But some Hebrew MSS. LXX., and Syriac, read "the priests and the Levites;" Arab., "the Levites and the priests;" and Vulg., "the priests with the Levites." Above all, 1Kings 8:4 has, "And the priests and the Levites brought them up." It appears, therefore, that the conjunction is rightly supplied by the Authorised Version.

Verse 5. - In the parallel (1 Kings 8:4), the "and" in the last line of this verse does not need the italic type, but is found in the Hebrew text, confirming our version of ver. 4 foregoing. The tabernacle of the congregation; or, tent of meeting, designs here the tabernacle of Moses from Gibeon (comp. 1 Kings 3:4; 1 Samuel 21:6; 1 Chronicles 16:39, 40; 2 Chronicles 1:3), and not the tent of Mount Zion (2 Samuel 6:17). This tabernacle, then, and these holy vessels all, are carried into the new temple, as venerated relics and sacred mementoes of a memorable past of vicissitude. But the ark had still its ministry to perform (ver. 7).
