And at the king’s commandment.] See 2Ki 12:9<\/span> . <\/p>\n <\/p>\n And set it without at the gate.<\/strong> ] Near the altar, that men might be encouraged to it, as to an offering made to God, saith Wolphius.<\/p>\n 2Ch 24:8-14<\/p>\n 2Ch 24:8-14<\/p>\n A COLLECTION BOX INSTALLED AT THE TEMPLE GATE<\/p>\n “So the king commanded, and they made a chest, and set it without at the gate of Jehovah. And they made a proclamation through Judah and Jerusalem, to bring in for Jehovah the tax that Moses the servant of God laid upon Israel in the wilderness. And all the princes and all the people rejoiced, and brought in, and cast into the chest, until they had made an end. And it was so, that at what time the chest was brought unto the king’s officers by the hand of the Levites, and when they saw that there was much money, the king’s scribe and the chief priest’s officer came and emptied the chest, and took it, and carried it to its place again. Thus they did day by day, and gathered money in abundance. And the king and Jehoiada gave it to such as did the work of the service of the house of Jehovah; and they hired masons and carpenters to restore the house of Jehovah, and also such as wrought iron and brass to repair the house of Jehovah. So the workmen wrought, and the work of repairing went forward in their hands, and they set up the house of God in its state, and strengthened it. And when they had made an end, they brought the rest of the money before the king and Jehoiada, whereof were made vessels for the house of Jehovah, even vessels wherewith to minister and to offer, and spoons, and vessels of gold and silver. And they offered burnt-offerings in the house of Jehovah continually all the days of Jehoiada.”<\/p>\n 2Ch 24:5-14 is parallel with 2Ki 12:5-16; and most of our comments on these paragraphs will be found in our Commentary on Second Kings.<\/p>\n We wish to stress, however, the repeated references to the teachings of Moses, thus sustaining the unimpeachable witness of Chronicles to the continual existence of the Pentateuch from the days of Moses throughout the history of Israel.<\/p>\n 2Ch 24:15-22 appear only here and are not in Kings.<\/p>\n E.M. Zerr:<\/p>\n 2Ch 24:8-9. This chest was a slotted box to receive the money. Since it was a special collection, it was proper to provide a convenient place in which the people could deposit their gifts. The obligation laid upon them by Moses referred to the law of contributions in general; the special collection would come under that law. The proclamation was spread throughout the country, but the people were to bring their money to Jerusalem and put it in this chest. <\/p>\n 2Ch 24:10. Rejoiced, and brought in. This is suggestive of the same principle taught by Paul in 2Co 9:7. God will not bless a gift that is offered while the donor is in an unwilling frame of mind. It must have been a genuine pleasure to contribute to such a worthy cause that was before the people of Judah. Their holy temple had been violated through the influence of one of the wickedest of women, and its treasures turned over to a false god. That woman was out of the way and the true worship again was being restored. Until they had made an end means the contributions kept coming in until sufficient funds were collected to pay for the needed repairs. <\/p>\n 2Ch 24:11. The space in the chest would not hold the entire amount of money required for the work on hand. When it was necessary to empty it, two men took charge of the money. <\/p>\n 2Ch 24:12. This verse is a simple business statement of how the money was put out after having been collected from the people. The setup indicates that men with the proper trades were employed to repair the ‘house. <\/p>\n 2Ch 24:13. Work was perfected means it was completed. To set the house in his state denotes that it was put back into its original condition and reinforced. <\/p>\n 2Ch 24:14. Since the holy vessels had been taken out of the temple, it was necessary to get some more. Hence a part of the money was used for that purpose as well as for repairing the house. The verse covers all of the days of Jehoiada regarding the service. After the building had been repaired and the holy vessels replaced, the true service of sacrifices was reinstated and continued. <\/p>\n at the king’s: 2Ki 12:8, 2Ki 12:9, Mar 12:41 <\/p>\n Reciprocal: 2Ki 22:4 – sum the silver<\/p>\n 2Ch 24:8-9. And set it at the gate of the house, &c. That is, of the court of the people, whither all manner of persons might come to offer. To bring in to the Lord the collection that Moses laid upon Israel That is, a collection answerable to it. <\/p>\n And at the king’s commandment they made a chest, and set it without at the gate of the house of the LORD. 8.
