Bible Verse Review
  from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge

And stand: Psalms 134:1, Psalms 135:2

families of the fathers: Heb. house of the fathers

people: Heb. sons of the people.

Reciprocal: Exodus 12:21 - and take 2 Chronicles 35:10 - the priests Ezra 6:18 - the priests

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And stand in the holy place,.... The court of the priests, where their ministrations were:

according to the divisions of the families of your brethren the people; of the other tribes, who were according to their families to provide a lamb for the passover:

and after the division of the families of the Levites; who were obliged to observe the same ordinance in their respective families, and for whom, as well as for the other families of Israel, they were to slay the lamb.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

The sense of this verse probably is: “So divide yourselves that, for every distinct family among the people who come to the Passover, there shall be a portion of a Levitical family to minister.”
