At first David appointed the Levites to serve from thirty
years old and upwards; but considering, probably, that the
temple which was about to be built, with its courts, chambers,
etc., would require a more numerous ministry, he fixed this
period, by this subsequent regulation, at twenty years and
upwards. In the time of Moses, the age was from thirty years
to fifty: here this latter period is not mentioned, probably
because the service was not so laborious now; for the ark
being fixed, they had no longer any burdens to carry; and
therefore even an old man might continue to serve. See the
Note on Nu 8:24.

The standards of all weights and measures were in the

this way be committed. Honesty is inseparably connected with
piety; and hence the Levites, being sufficiently numerous,
were employed to superintend the former, as well as the
latter.
