Abowiem byli oczyścieni kapłani i Lewitowie, będąc wszyscy czystemi aż do jednego i sprawowali ofiary wielkonocne za wszytki, którzy przyszli z więzienia i za bracią swą kapłany i sami za się.
Było to możliwe, ponieważ zarówno kapłani, jak i Lewici, wszyscy jak jeden mąż, byli czyści. Przygotowali więc baranka paschalnego za wszystkich wygnańców, za swoich braci kapłanów oraz za samych siebie.
Bowiem wszyscy kapłani i Lewici, jeden za drugim się oczyścili i dlatego w święto Paschy ofiarowali baranka za wszystkich, co przyszli z niewoli, za swoich braci – kapłanów oraz za siebie samych.
Bo się oczyścili kapłani i Lewitowie jednostajnie, wszyscy byli oczyszczeni; przetoż ofiarowali baranka święta przejścia za wszystkich, którzy przyszli z niewoli, i za braci swoich kapłanów, i za siebie samych.
Kapłani bowiem i Lewici oczyścili się jak jeden mąż, wszyscy byli oczyszczeni. Zabili więc baranka paschalnego dla wszystkich, którzy przybyli z niewoli, dla swoich braci kapłanów i dla siebie samych.
Wszyscy bowiem kapłani i Lewici co do jednego dopełnili oczyszczenia, tak że wszyscy byli czyści. Zabili więc baranka paschalnego za wszystkich dawnych jeńców i za swoich braci kapłanów oraz za samych siebie.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
For the priests and the Levites were purified together, all of them were pure,.... They were all to a man pure, and all purified as one man; all were of one mind to purify themselves, and took care to do it, and did it with as much dispatch as if only one man was purified; so that they were more generally prepared for service now than in the times of Hezekiah, 2 Chronicles 29:34
and killed the passover for all the children of the captivity, and for their brethren the priests and for themselves; which seems to have been done by the Levites, for themselves and for the priests, and for all the people, who were not so pure as the priests and Levites; or otherwise they might have killed it themselves, Exodus 12:6, as Bochart n thinks.
n Hierozoic. par. 1. l. 2. c. 50. col. 576.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Some render, âAnd the priests were purified; and the Levites, as one man, were all of them pure.â A contrast is drawn between the universal purity of the Levites and the merely general purity of the priests 2Ch 29:34; 2 Chronicles 30:3, which made it fitting that the former should undertake the slaughter of all the Paschal lambs, even of those which the priests were to consume. In later times the ordinary practice was for each head of a family to kill for himself.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 20. The Levites were purified together — They were all ready at one time to observe the proper rites and ceremonies, and had no need of having a second passover, which was appointed by the law for those who had been accidentally defiled, or were at a distance from the tabernacle. See 2 Chronicles 30:3.
