Commentary on 2 Chronicles 23:8

Theological / Devotional

All Judah. That is, the officials of Judah represented there.

On the sabbath. See on 2 Kings 11:5, 7.

Dismissed not the courses. The courses of priests and Levites who had completed their duties and would normally have been dismissed were retained for the present emergency to assist those who were just beginning their duties. On these courses of priests and Levites see 1 Chron. 24, 25.
