the supervisors of those doing the work
on 2 Chronicles 34:10-13
Chronicles gives the repair a staff list that Kings does not carry. Levites of Merari and Kohath oversee the work, and other Levites serve as musicians and as “secretaries, officers, and gatekeepers”. Albert Barnes notes that this is the first place the scribe names an office within the Levites.
