On the eighth day they held a solemn assembly, for the dedication of the altar had lasted seven days, and the feast seven days more.

At the dedication of the wall of Jerusalem, the Levites were sought out from all their homes and brought to Jerusalem to celebrate the joyous dedication with thanksgiving and singing, accompanied by cymbals, harps, and lyres.

When the altar was anointed, the leaders approached with their offerings for its dedication and presented them before the altar.

And the LORD said to Moses, “Each day one leader is to present his offering for the dedication of the altar.”

So these were the offerings from the leaders of Israel for the dedication of the altar when it was anointed: twelve silver platters, twelve silver bowls, and twelve gold dishes.
