So the priests and the Levites, and the porters, and the singers, and some of the people, and the Nethinims, and all Israel, dwelt in their cities, etc.] The same is said in (<150270>Ezra 2:70), (see Gill on “<150270>Ezra 2:70”), and, when the seventh month came, the children of Israel were in their cities; the month Tisri, answering to part of September, in which month was the feast of tabernacles; at this time of the year they were in their cities when they came forth out of Babylon, and so they were now; (see <150301>Ezra 3:1).
