Commentary on 2 Chronicles 29:31

Theological / Devotional

Ye have consecrated yourselves. Literally, “You have filled your hand,” the “hand” presumably being the symbol of service.

Thank offerings. In the peace offerings and thank offerings the greater part of the victim belonged to, and was consumed by, the worshiper, his family, and friends in a joyous festival of thanksgiving (see Lev. 7:11-21). The burnt offerings were wholly consumed on the altar (Lev. 1:3—17).
