1 Chronicles9:23
23 So they and their children had the oversight of the gates of the house of the LORD, namely, the house of the tabernacle , by wards .
To wit, in Davids time.
This is added to explain what he means by the House of the Lord, not that Tabernacle which David had set up for the Ark; but that more solemn Tabernacle, which Moses had made by Gods express Command and most particular Direction; which in Davids time was at Gibeon; in which God was and would be worshipped until the Temple was built. See 1 King. 3. 2, &c. 2 Chron. 1. 3, 5, &c.
i. e. By Turns or Courses, each of them at his Gate and in his appointed Time.
