2 Chronicles 29:33-36

Context
29:33 and 600 bulls and 3,000 sheep 1  were consecrated. 29:34 But there were not enough priests to skin all the animals, 2  so their brothers, the Levites, helped them until the work was finished and the priests could consecrate themselves. (The Levites had been more conscientious about consecrating themselves than the priests.) 3  29:35 There was a large number of burnt sacrifices, as well as fat from the peace offerings and drink offerings that accompanied the burnt sacrifices. So the service of the Lord’s temple was reinstituted. 4  29:36 Hezekiah and all the people were happy about what God had done 5  for them, 6  for it had been done quickly. 7
