Contextual Overview

27 At the dedication of the wall of Yerushalayim, they sought out the L'vi'im from wherever they had settled to bring them to Yerushalayim and celebrate the dedication with hymns of thanksgiving and with songs accompanied by cymbals, lutes and lyres. 28 The trained singers assembled together from the area around Yerushalayim, the villages of the N'tofati, 29 Beit-Gilgal and the region of Geva and ‘Azmavet; for the singers had built villages for themselves all around Yerushalayim. 30 The cohanim and L'vi'im first purified themselves; then they purified the people, the gates and the wall; 31 and after that I brought the leaders of Y'hudah up onto the wall and appointed two large choirs to give thanks and to walk in procession. One went to the right on the wall toward the Dung Gate. 32 After them went Hosha‘yah and half of the leaders of Y'hudah, 33 together with ‘Azaryah, ‘Ezra, Meshulam, 34 Y'hudah, Binyamin, Sh'ma‘yah and Yirmeyah. 35 With them were some of the sons of the cohanim carrying trumpets, namely, Z'kharyah the son of Yonatan the son of Sh'ma‘yah, the son of Mattanyah, the son of Mikhayah, the son of Zakur, the son of Asaf, 36 and his kinsmen, Sh'ma‘yah, ‘Azar'el, Milalai, Gilalai, Ma‘ai, N'tan'el, Y'hudah and Hanani, who had the musical instruments of David the man of God. ‘Ezra the Torah-teacher led them.
