Bible Verse Review
  from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge

the houses: 1 Chronicles 9:10-34, Nehemiah 11:10-20

after your courses: The regulations formed by David, and established by Solomon, concerning the courses of the priests and Levites, were committed to writing, and preserved, for them to refer to continually. Josiah, as well as Hezekiah, required the priests and Levites to attend to their several duties, and encouraged them therein, but he neither added, altered, not retrenched anything: he merely enforced what had been established in the law, and in the regulations made by David and the contemporary prophets: "the commandment of the king....was by the word of the Lord." 1 Chronicles 23:1 - 1 Chronicles 26:32

and according: 2 Chronicles 8:14

Reciprocal: 2 Chronicles 5:11 - wait by course 2 Chronicles 35:10 - the priests Ezra 6:18 - the priests

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And prepare yourselves,.... To do their work in this service of the sanctuary, the passover; that they be ready to do it, and diligent in it, and perform it according to the law of God:

by the houses of your fathers, after your courses; such of them whose turn in course it was to officiate:

according to the writing of David king of Israel, and according to the writing of Solomon his son; who had given in writing directions in what manner their courses should be observed, see 1 Chronicles 23:1.
