2Ch 2 Chronicles, chapter Second Book of Chronicles, chapter 29
But the priests were too few, so that they could not flay (stip the skin off) all the burnt offerings: wherefore their brethren the Levi’im (Levites) [Joined to] did help them, till the work was ended, and until the [other] priests had sanctified themselves: for the Levi’im (Levites) [Joined to] [were] more upright in heart to sanctify (make holy; set apart for God’s use) themselves than the priests.2Ch 35:11

But the Kohanim were too few, so that they could not skin all the olot; therefore their achim the Levi'im did help them, until the work was completed, and until the other Kohanim had set them apart as kodesh for the Levi'im were more yashar in lev to set themselves apart as kodesh than the Kohanim.

But there were not enough priests to remove the skins from the animals that would be completely burned on the altar. So their fellow descendants of Levi helped them until that work was finished, and until other priests had purified/consecrated themselves to do that work. It was necessary for them to do that because many of the priests had not yet performed the rituals to consecrate themselves for that work, like the descendants of Levi had done.
