Context of 2 Chronicles 29:14

12Then these Levites started to work in the temple: From Kohath's clan: Amasai's son Mahath and Azariah's son Joel. From Merari's clan: Abdi's son Kish and Jehallelel's son Azariah. From Gershon's clan: Zimmah's son Joah and Joah's son Eden. 13From Elizaphan's clan: Shimri and Jeiel. From Asaph's clan: Zechariah and Mattaniah. From Heman's clan: Jehiel and Shimei. From Jeduthun's clan: Shemaiah and Uzziel. 15Those men brought all the Levites together. They all made themselves clean to serve the Lord. Then they went into the temple to make it a holy place again, as the king had commanded them. They obeyed the Lord's command. 16Then the priests went into the inside room of the Lord's temple to make it holy. They found some things in the temple that were unclean. They carried all those things out to the temple yard. Then the Levites took the unclean things out of the city to the Kidron Valley.
