Bible Verse Review
  from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge

the singers: 1 Chronicles 25:1 - 1 Chronicles 26:32

the ward: That is, they suffered no unclean person to enter the temple. 1 Chronicles 23:28, 2 Chronicles 23:6

Reciprocal: 1 Chronicles 6:32 - and then 1 Chronicles 9:23 - the oversight Nehemiah 13:9 - they cleansed

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And both the singers and the porters kept the ward of their God, and the ward of their purification,.... The singers kept their turns in course in the temple, and were not wanting to officiate on all occasions, besides morning and evening services; and the porters they diligently kept the gates of the temple, that no impure person or thing in a ceremonial sense entered:

according to the commandment of David, and Solomon his son; who made very good rules and orders relative to the better and more regular performance of service by them; see 1 Chronicles 25:1.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

The ward of the purification - The observances with respect to purification. Compare 1 Chronicles 23:28.
