Gill's Notes on the Bible
So the priests and the Levites sanctified themselves,.... As they were ordered, and in the manner they should:
to bring up the ark of the Lord God of Israel; for though it was chiefly the work of the Levites, yet the priests might do it, and sometimes did, see Joshua 3:13.
