2 Chronicles 24:15 Meaning and Commentary

2 Chronicles 24:15

But Jehoiada waxed old, and was full of days when he died,
&c.] A very old man; few at this time arrived to such an age; he was a rare instance:

One hundred and thirty years old was he when he died;
the oldest man we read of from the times of Moses, and older than he by ten years.

2 Chronicles 24:15 In-Context

13 The men who were in charge of the work did their best. The repairs went very well under them. They rebuilt God's temple. They did it in keeping with its original plans. They made it stronger.

14 So they finished the work. Then they brought the rest of the money to the king and Jehoiada. It was used to pay for the articles that were made for the LORD's temple. The articles were used for serving at the temple. They were also used for the burnt offerings. The articles included dishes and other objects that were made out of gold and silver. As long as Jehoiada lived, burnt offerings were sacrificed continually at the LORD's temple.

15 Jehoiada had become very old. He died at the age of 130.

16 His body was buried with the kings in the City of David. That's because he had done so many good things in Israel for God and his temple.

17 After Jehoiada died, the officials of Judah came to King Joash. They bowed down to him. He listened to them.
