2 Chronicles 24:2 Meaning and Commentary

2 Chronicles 24:30

And the chief of the house of the father of the families of
the Kohathites [shall be] Elizaphan the son of Uzziel.
] The same man, who, with his brother Mishael, carried Nadab and Abihu out of the camp, and buried them, ( Leviticus 10:4 Leviticus 10:5 ) ; he descended from the last and youngest of the families of the Kohathites; and some think this was one reason at least of Korah's dissatisfaction, and of his entering into a conspiracy against Moses and Aaron, because one of a younger family of his house was preferred to this dignity before him.

2 Chronicles 24:2 In-Context

1 Joash was seven years old when he became king, and he was ruling for forty years in Jerusalem: his mother's name was Zibiah of Beer-sheba.

2 And Joash did what was right in the eyes of the Lord as long as Jehoiada the priest was living.

3 And Jehoiada took two wives for him, and he became the father of sons and daughters.

4 Now after this Joash had a desire to put the house of the Lord into good order again;

5 And getting together the priests and Levites, he said to them, Go out into the towns of Judah year by year, and get from all Israel money to keep the house of your God in good condition; and see that this is done without loss of time. The Levites, however, were slow in doing so.
