2 Samuel 20:24 Meaning and Commentary

2 Samuel 20:24

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 ) .

2 Samuel 20:24 In-Context

22 Then the woman went to all the people in her wisdom. They cut off the head of Sheva the son of Bikhri, and threw it out to Yo'av. He blew the shofar, and they were dispersed from the city, every man to his tent. Yo'av returned to Yerushalayim to the king.
23 Now Yo'av was over all the host of Yisra'el; and Benayah the son of Yehoiada was over the Kereti and over the Peleti;
24 and Adoram was over the men subject to forced labor; and Yehoshafat the son of Achilud was the recorder;
25 and Sheva was Sofer; and Tzadok and Avyatar were Kohanim;
26 and also `Ira the Ya'irite was chief minister to David.
