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 in charge of the renovation worked hard and made steady progress. They restored the Temple of God according to its original design and strengthened it.

14 When all the repairs were finished, they brought the remaining money to the king and Jehoiada. It was used to make various articles for the Temple of the LORD —articles for worship services and for burnt offerings, including ladles and other articles made of gold and silver. And the burnt offerings were sacrificed continually in the Temple of the LORD during the lifetime of Jehoiada the priest.

15 Jehoiada lived to a very old age, finally dying at 130.

16 He was buried among the kings in the City of David, because he had done so much good in Israel for God and his Temple.

17 But after Jehoiada’s death, the leaders of Judah came and bowed before King Joash and persuaded him to listen to their advice.
