Leviticus 8:3Easy To Read VersionThen bring the people together at the entrance of the Meeting Tent. [84] ” See the chapter |
Solomon commanded the elders of Israel and all the leaders of the family groups to meet together in Jerusalem. (These men were the leaders of the heads of the families of Israel.) Solomon did this so \{the Levites\} could bring the Box of the Lord’s Agreement {\cf2\super [76]} up \{to the temple\} from the City of David, that is, Zion.
So all the people of Israel met together in the seventh month {\cf2\super [42]} of the year. They were together and in agreement just as if they were one man. They all met together in the open place in front of the Water Gate. All those people asked Ezra the teacher to bring out the Book of the Law of Moses. That is the Law that the Lord had given to the people of Israel.
