2 Chronicles23:6
6 But let none come into the house of the LORD , save the priests, and they that minister of the Levites , they shall go in, for they are holy: but all the people shall keep the watch of the LORD .
Strictly so called, as it is distinguished from the Courts, into which others were permitted to come, v. 5. to wit, into the Holy place.
They who are to minister in course, or by my present appointment.
i. e. Of the House of the Lord▪ as the phrase may be filled up out of this place and 2 Kings 11. 6. The sence is, Let them stand in their Court to prevent and oppose any person who shall endeavour violently to break into the house to seize upon the King, or to disturb their present work; which he expected Athaliah and her complices would do.
