• Here order rules in the distribution (2 Chron. 31:14-19) and many are occupied with this. A ministry consisting exclusively in caring for material needs is not an unimportant function. Such occupations are modest, no doubt, and do not stand out, but without them the order of God's house would suffer. In Nehemiah 13:10-14 we see the consequences that neglecting the tithes had on the entire service and worship of God. (“Hezekiah - The Order of the House of God: 2 Chronicles 31” by H.L. Rossier)
