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 So the workmen labored, and the work was completed by them; they restored the house of God to its original condition and reinforced it.
14 When they had finished, they brought the rest of the money before the king and Jehoiada; they made from it articles for the house of the Lord, articles for serving and offering, spoons and vessels of gold and silver. And they offered burnt offerings in the house of the Lord continually all the days of Jehoiada.
15 But Jehoiada grew old and was full of days, and he died; he was one hundred and thirty years old when he died.
16 And they buried him in the City of David among the kings, because he had done good in Israel, both toward God and His house.
17 Now after the death of Jehoiada the leaders of Judah came and bowed down to the king. And the king listened to them.
