2 Chronicles 24:14

14 When they finished, they brought the rest of the money to the king and Jehoiada, who used it to make utensils for the LORD's temple. They made dishes and gold and silver utensils for the service and for the offerings. As long as Jehoiada lived, they sacrificed burnt offerings in the LORD's temple.

2 Chronicles 24:14 Meaning and Commentary

2 Chronicles 24:14

And when they had finished it
The repairs of the house, all that were necessary:

they brought the rest of the money before the king and Jehoiada:
that is, the overseers, when they had paid the workmen, brought what was left of the money collected to the king and the priest, to dispose of as they should think fit:

whereof were made vessels for the house of the Lord;
in the room of such that Athaliah and her sons had taken away, and converted to the use of Baal; for though it is said, ( 2 Kings 12:13 ) , that none were made of this money, the meaning is, that none were made of it until the work was finished, and the workmen paid:

even vessels to minister and offer withal;
which, according to Jarchi, were pestles and mortars to beat spices with; but Kimchi thinks they were small vessels with which they drew wine out of the bin for drink offerings: and spoons and vessels of gold and silver: see ( 2 Kings 12:13 ) ,

and they offered burnt offerings in the house of the Lord
continually all the days of Jehoiada;
the daily sacrifice, morning and evening.

2 Chronicles 24:14 In-Context

12 The king and Jehoiada would give the money to the foremen who were working on the LORD's temple, and they hired masons and carpenters to renovate the LORD's temple. They also hired men who worked with iron and bronze to repair the LORD's temple.
13 As the men worked, the project progressed under the foremen's guidance. They restored God's temple to its proper condition and reinforced it.
14 When they finished, they brought the rest of the money to the king and Jehoiada, who used it to make utensils for the LORD's temple. They made dishes and gold and silver utensils for the service and for the offerings. As long as Jehoiada lived, they sacrificed burnt offerings in the LORD's temple.
15 When Jehoiada was old and had lived out his years, he died. He was 130 years old when he died.
16 He was buried in the City of David with the kings because of the good he had done in Israel for God and the temple.
