Context of 1 Chronicles 9:28
26The four head gatekeepers, who were Levites, were assigned to guard the storerooms and treasuries in God’s sanctuary. 27They would spend the night in their posts all around God’s sanctuary, for they were assigned to guard it and would open it with the key every morning. Some of them were in charge of the articles used by those who served; they counted them when they brought them in and when they brought them out. 29Some of them were in charge of the equipment and articles of the sanctuary, as well as the flour, wine, olive oil, incense, and spices. 30(But some of the priests mixed the spices.)
