4 Even before this, the priest Eliashib, who was related to Tobiah and had been put in charge of the storerooms of our God's temple, 5 had provided a large room for Tobiah. Previously, this room had been used to store grain offerings, incense, utensils, a tenth of all the grain harvested, new wine, and olive oil. These things belonged by law to the Levites, singers, and gatekeepers. The contributions for the priests had also been stored there. Nehemiah 13:4-5, God's Word Translation.
