Concise Complete
The offices of the Levites.
The porters and treasurers of the temple, had
occasion for strength and valour to oppose those who wrongly attempted to enter
the sanctuary, and to guard the sacred treasures. Much was expended daily upon
the altar; flour, wine, oil, salt, fuel, beside the lamps; quantities of these
were kept beforehand, besides the sacred vestments and utensils. These were the
treasures of the house of God. These treasures typified the plenty there is in
our heavenly Father's house, enough and to spare. From those sacred treasuries,
the unsearchable riches of Christ, all our wants are supplied; and receiving
from his fulness, we must give him the glory, and endeavour to dispose of our
abilities and substance according to his will. We have an account of those
employed as officers and judges. The magistracy is an ordinance of God for the
good of the church, as truly as the ministry, and must not be neglected. None of
the Levites who were employed in the service of the sanctuary, none of the
singers or porters, were concerned in this outward business; one duty was enough
to engage the whole man. Wisdom, courage, strength of faith, holy affections,
and constancy of mind in doing our duty, are requisite or useful for every
station.
