All those who were skilled among the workers made the tabernacle with ten curtains of finely twisted linen and blue, purple and scarlet yarn, with cherubim woven into them by expert hands.All the curtains were the same size— twenty-eight cubits long and four cubits wide.They joined five of the curtains together and did the same with the other five.Then they made loops of blue material along the edge of the end curtain in one set, and the same was done with the end curtain in the other set.They also made fifty loops on one curtain and fifty loops on the end curtain of the other set, with the loops opposite each other.Then they made fifty gold clasps and used them to fasten the two sets of curtains together so that the tabernacle was a unit.They made curtains of goat hair for the tent over the tabernacle— eleven altogether.All eleven curtains were the same size— thirty cubits long and four cubits wide.They joined five of the curtains into one set and the other six into another set.Then they made fifty loops along the edge of the end curtain in one set and also along the edge of the end curtain in the other set.They made fifty bronze clasps to fasten the tent together as a unit.Then they made for the tent a covering of ram skins dyed red, and over that a covering of the other durable leather.

Konaniah, a Levite, was the overseer in charge of these things, and his brother Shimei was next in rank.Jehiel, Azaziah, Nahath, Asahel, Jerimoth, Jozabad, Eliel, Ismakiah, Mahath and Benaiah were assistants of Konaniah and Shimei his brother. All these served by appointment of King Hezekiah and Azariah the official in charge of the temple of God.Kore son of Imnah the Levite, keeper of the East Gate, was in charge of the freewill offerings given to God, distributing the contributions made to the Lord and also the consecrated gifts.Eden, Miniamin, Jeshua, Shemaiah, Amariah and Shekaniah assisted him faithfully in the towns of the priests, distributing to their fellow priests according to their divisions, old and young alike.In addition, they distributed to the males three years old or more whose names were in the genealogical records— all who would enter the temple of the Lord to perform the daily duties of their various tasks, according to their responsibilities and their divisions.And they distributed to the priests enrolled by their families in the genealogical records and likewise to the Levites twenty years old or more, according to their responsibilities and their divisions.They included all the little ones, the wives, and the sons and daughters of the whole community listed in these genealogical records.

Of the Levites: Shemaiah son of Hasshub, the son of Azrikam, the son of Hashabiah, a Merarite;Bakbakkar, Heresh, Galal and Mattaniah son of Mika, the son of Zikri, the son of Asaph;Obadiah son of Shemaiah, the son of Galal, the son of Jeduthun; and Berekiah son of Asa, the son of Elkanah, who lived in the villages of the Netophathites.The gatekeepers: Shallum, Akkub, Talmon, Ahiman and their fellow Levites, Shallum their chiefbeing stationed at the King’s Gate on the east, up to the present time. These were the gatekeepers belonging to the camp of the Levites.Shallum son of Kore, the son of Ebiasaph, the son of Korah, and his fellow gatekeepers from his family( the Korahites) were responsible for guarding the thresholds of the tent just as their ancestors had been responsible for guarding the entrance to the dwelling of the Lord.In earlier times Phinehas son of Eleazar was the official in charge of the gatekeepers, and the Lord was with him.Zechariah son of Meshelemiah was the gatekeeper at the entrance to the tent of meeting.Altogether, those chosen to be gatekeepers at the thresholds numbered 212. They were registered by genealogy in their villages. The gatekeepers had been assigned to their positions of trust by David and Samuel the seer.They and their descendants were in charge of guarding the gates of the house of the Lord— the house called the tent of meeting.The gatekeepers were on the four sides: east, west, north and south.Their fellow Levites in their villages had to come from time to time and share their duties for seven- day periods.But the four principal gatekeepers, who were Levites, were entrusted with the responsibility for the rooms and treasuries in the house of God.They would spend the night stationed around the house of God, because they had to guard it; and they had charge of the key for opening it each morning.Some of them were in charge of the articles used in the temple service; they counted them when they were brought in and when they were taken out.Others were assigned to take care of the furnishings and all the other articles of the sanctuary, as well as the special flour and wine, and the olive oil, incense and spices.But some of the priests took care of mixing the spices.A Levite named Mattithiah, the firstborn son of Shallum the Korahite, was entrusted with the responsibility for baking the offering bread.Some of the Kohathites, their fellow Levites, were in charge of preparing for every Sabbath the bread set out on the table.Those who were musicians, heads of Levite families, stayed in the rooms of the temple and were exempt from other duties because they were responsible for the work day and night.
