A New Kind of Service

Name Date

Read and Think

David was old and full of days, and he made Solomon king over Israel. He gathered the princes, priests, and Levites. The Levites thirty years old and up were counted. There were thirty-eight thousand men. Most would oversee the work of Yahweh's house. Others were officers, judges, doorkeepers, and musicians.

David divided them by the families of Gershon, Kohath, and Merari. Aaron was set apart to make the most holy things holy, to burn incense, and to bless in Yahweh's name forever. The sons of Moses the man of God were counted with the Levites.

David said Yahweh had given rest to his people and dwells in Jerusalem forever. So the Levites would no longer carry the tent. They would help the priests and care for the bread and the holy things. They would stand every morning to thank and praise Yahweh, and in the evening too (23:30).

1 Chronicles 23 · Grade 5

Order for Worship

Name Date

Read and Think

Chapters 23-27 show David organizing the people for worship and service in his last days. He made Solomon king and gathered the princes, priests, and Levites. Thirty-eight thousand Levites from thirty years old upward were counted and assigned. Twenty-four thousand would oversee the work of Yahweh's house, six thousand were officers and judges, four thousand were doorkeepers, and four thousand praised Yahweh with instruments.

The Levites were grouped by Gershon, Kohath, and Merari. Aaron and his sons were separated forever to sanctify the most holy things, to burn incense, and to bless in Yahweh's name. The sons of Moses, though the great lawgiver's family, served as ordinary Levites.

Verses 25-32 explain the shift. Yahweh had given rest to his people, and he dwells in Jerusalem forever. The Levites no longer needed to carry the tabernacle and its vessels. Their new service was to wait on the priests, to care for the holy things, the show bread, and the offerings, and to stand every morning and evening to thank and praise Yahweh.

Show What You Know

  1. What do chapters 23-27 show?

  2. How many Levites praised Yahweh with instruments?

  3. What were Aaron and his sons separated forever to do?

  4. How did the sons of Moses serve?

  5. What was one part of the Levites' new service?
