Reading the Bible Daily with Dave – October 9, 2025
1 Chronicles 24 — The Priests Divided for Temple Service
Show Summary:
In this episode of Reading the Bible Daily with Dave, we see how David and Zadok divided the priests into twenty-four divisions for temple service. This careful organization highlights God’s holiness, His call for order in worship, and reminds us that every believer has a place in Christ’s kingdom. Ultimately, the priesthood points us to Christ, our eternal High Priest, who alone fulfills the role perfectly and gives every believer a part in His service.
