Y los Levitas cantores, todos los de Asaph, los de Hemán, y los de Jeduthún, juntamente con sus hijos y sus hermanos, vestidos de lino fino, estaban con címbalos y salterios y arpas al oriente del altar; y con ellos ciento veinte sacerdotes que tocaban trompetas:)
The Third Beit HaMikdash
Targum Yonason interprets the hagederes haginah1Yechezkel 42:12. as “the platform (duchan) of the Levites.” The term gederes implies a structure, a geder (“partition”), of stones on which the Levites would play their instruments and sing. This platform was “on the eastern way,” for the duchan was in the eastern portion of the Courtyard, as stated in the passage in Chronicles that describes the completion of the building of the First Beis HaMikdash:2II Divrei HaYamim 5:12. “The Levites of whom all were singers, of Asaf… stood at the east of the Altar.”
