2 Reis 12:11 Meaning and Commentary

2 Kings 12:11

And they gave the money, being told, into the hands of them
that did the work, that had the oversight of the house of the Lord,
&c.] Who were appointed overseers of the workmen employed in the repairs of the temple; which overseers were laymen, and not priests, they being discharged from any concern in the repairs: this money "told", Kimchi interprets of its being coined; he supposes money coined and uncoined to be brought, which was put in separate bags; and that, which was not coined, they coined it before they delivered it to the overseers to pay the workmen with:

and they laid it out to the carpenters and builders that wrought upon

2 Reis 12:11 In-Context

9 Mas o sacerdote Jeoiada tomou uma arca , fez um buraco na tampa, e a pôs ao pé do altar, � mão direita de quem entrava na casa do Senhor. E os sacerdotes que guardavam a entrada metiam ali todo o dinheiro que se trazia � casa do Senhor.
10 Sucedeu pois que, vendo eles que já havia muito dinheiro na arca, o escrivão do rei e o sumo sacerdote vinham, e ensacavam e contavam o dinheiro que se achava na casa do Senhor.
11 E entregavam o dinheiro, depois de pesado, nas mãos dos que faziam a obra e que tinham a seu cargo a casa do Senhor; e eles o distribuíam aos carpinteiros, e aos edificadores que reparavam a casa do Senhor;
12 como também aos pedreiros e aos cabouqueiros; e para se comprar madeira e pedras de cantaria a fim de repararem os estragos da casa do Senhor, e para tudo quanto exigia despesa para se reparar a casa.
13 Todavia, do dinheiro que se trazia � casa do Senhor, não se faziam nem taças de prata, nem espevitadeiras, nem bacias, nem trombetas, nem vaso algum de ouro ou de prata para a casa do Senhor;
