BRINGING UP OF THE ARK OF THE COVENANT.

9. 直到今日還在那裏——即這歷史寫成之時；因為巴比倫被擄之後，約櫃與其杠再無蹤跡可尋。
英語原文
9. there it is unto this day--that is, at the time when this history was composed; for after the Babylonish captivity there is no trace of either ark or staves.

11. 在場的祭司……那時不用按班次供職——大衛所定的每週輪值制度，是為祭司的日常職務而設；在特殊場合、或比平常更為隆重的情形下，祭司便全體出席。
英語原文
11. all the priests that were present . . . did not then wait by course--The rotation system of weekly service introduced by David was intended for the ordinary duties of the priesthood; on extraordinary occasions, or when more than wonted solemnity attached to them, the priests attended in a body.

12. 利未人歌唱的——在重大莊嚴的場合如這次，需要一個完整的詩班，他們就位時一絲不苟地按各自的職分排列：希幔家族佔中央位置，亞薩家族在其右，耶杜頓家族在其左；歌唱部門的位置是以色列院與祭司院東端祭壇之間的一處空間。
和他們在一起的一百二十個祭司吹號——號筒一直由祭司使用，在敬拜中特別用於在聖會期間召集百姓，以及喚起對禮儀中新的、連續部分的注意。敬拜中所用的號筒不少於兩支
（Nu 10:2）， 其最多數目從未超過聖殿奉獻時所立的先例。祭司吹號的位置與其他樂師分開；因為利未歌者佔據祭壇東邊的樂臺，祭司則站在祭壇西南的大理石桌旁。兩者都面朝祭壇而立。吹號的方式是：先長吹一平直的音，再吹一帶斷續與顫音的，然後再長吹一平直的音〔BROWN, Jewish Antiquities〕。
英語原文
12. the Levites which were the singers--On great and solemn occasions, such as this, a full choir was required, and their station was taken with scrupulous regard to their official parts: the family of Heman occupied the central place, the family of Asaph stood on his right, and that of Jeduthun on his left; the place allotted to the vocal department was a space between the court of Israel and the altar in the east end of the priests' court.
with them an hundred and twenty priests sounding with trumpets--The trumpet was always used by the priests, and in the divine service it was specially employed in calling the people together during the holy solemnities, and in drawing attention to new and successive parts of the ritual. The number of trumpets used in the divine service could not be less than two
(Nu 10:2),
and their greatest number never exceeded the precedent set at the dedication of the temple. The station where the priests were sounding with trumpets was apart from that of the other musicians; for while the Levite singers occupied an orchestra east of the altar, the priests stood at the marble table on the southwest of the altar. There both of them stood with their faces to the altar. The manner of blowing the trumpets was, first, by a long plain blast, then by one with breakings and quaverings, and then by a long plain blast again [BROWN, Jewish Antiquities].

1. 所羅門將他父親大衛分別為聖的金銀和器皿都帶了來——即他父親與其他將帥所留存、撥歸聖殿之用的大筆金銀及珍貴器皿
