And Adoram [was] over the tribute
Or over those that collected and brought it, as the Targum; this was a new office, and which respected both the revenue he received from his own people, and the tribute brought him from the nations conquered by him:

and Jehoshaphat the son of Ahilud [was] recorder;
who was in this office before, and now continued and established in it, ( 2 Samuel 8:16 ) .
