The context
32The number of the burnt offerings that the assembly brought was seventy cattle, a hundred rams, and two hundred lambs; all these were for a burnt offering to YHWH.
33 · This verse (above)
34But the priests were too few and could not skin all the burnt offerings; so their brothers the Levites helped them until the work was finished and until the priests had sanctified themselves, for the Levites were more upright in heart to sanctify themselves than the priests.
