2 Chronicles 35:6-14
6Now 1slaughter the Passover animals, 2sanctify yourselves and prepare for your brethren to do according to the word of the Lord by Moses.”
7Josiah contributed to the lay people, to all who were present, flocks of lambs and young goats, all for the Passover offerings, numbering 30,000 plus 3,000 bulls; these were from the king’s possessions. 8His officers also contributed a freewill offering to the people, the priests and the Levites. Hilkiah and Zechariah and Jehiel, 3the officials of the house of God, gave to the priests for the Passover offerings 2,600 from the flocks and 300 bulls. 94Conaniah also, and Shemaiah and Nethanel, his brothers, and Hashabiah and Jeiel and Jozabad, the officers of the Levites, contributed to the Levites for the Passover offerings 5,000 from the flocks and 500 bulls.
10So the service was prepared, and 5the priests stood at their stations and the Levites by their divisions according to the king’s command. 1167They slaughtered the Passover animals, and while 8the priests sprinkled 9the blood received from their hand, 10the Levites skinned them. 12Then they removed the burnt offerings that they might give them to the sections of the fathers’ households of the lay people to present to the Lord, as it is written in the book of Moses. They did this also with the bulls. 13So 11they roasted the Passover animals on the fire according to the ordinance, and they boiled 12the holy things in pots, in kettles, in pans, and carried them speedily to all the lay people. 14Afterwards they prepared for themselves and for the priests, because the priests, the sons of Aaron, were offering the burnt offerings and the fat until night; therefore the Levites prepared for themselves and for the priests, the sons of Aaron.
