2 Chronicles 24:10 Meaning and Commentary

2 Chronicles 24:10

And all the princes and all the people rejoiced
When they heard the proclamation, and understood for what use the money was to be given, and in what manner; all was agreeable and pleasing to them:

and brought in, and cast into the chest;
through the hole that was in the lid of it, ( 2 Kings 12:9 ) ,

until they had made an end:
everyone had given as much as he could, or thought fit to give.

2 Chronicles 24:10 In-Context

8 Then, at the king's order, they made a box and placed it outside the entrance to the house of ADONAI.

9 They proclaimed throughout Y'hudah and Yerushalayim that the tax Moshe the servant of God had imposed on Isra'el in the desert should be brought in for ADONAI.

10 All the leaders and all the people were glad to bring in their contributions and put them in the box, until it was full.

11 When the box was brought to the king's officials by the L'vi'im, and when they saw how much money there was, the king's secretary and the chief cohen's official came and emptied the box; then they took it and returned it to its place. They did this daily, and they collected money in abundance.

12 The king and Y'hoyada gave it to those in charge of taking care of the house of ADONAI. They, in turn, hired stone-workers and carpenters to restore the house of ADONAI, also iron- and bronze-workers to repair the house of ADONAI.
