2 Chronicles 24:2 Meaning and Commentary

2 Chronicles 24:30

And the chief of the house of the father of the families of
the Kohathites [shall be] Elizaphan the son of Uzziel.
] The same man, who, with his brother Mishael, carried Nadab and Abihu out of the camp, and buried them, ( Leviticus 10:4 Leviticus 10:5 ) ; he descended from the last and youngest of the families of the Kohathites; and some think this was one reason at least of Korah's dissatisfaction, and of his entering into a conspiracy against Moses and Aaron, because one of a younger family of his house was preferred to this dignity before him.

2 Chronicles 24:2 In-Context

1 Joash was seven years old when he became king; he was king for forty years in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Gazelle (Zibiah). She was from Beersheba.

2 Taught and trained by Jehoiada the priest, Joash did what pleased God throughout Jehoiada's lifetime.

3 Jehoiada picked out two wives for him; he had a family of both sons and daughters.

4 The time came when Joash determined to renovate The Temple of God.

5 He got the priests and Levites together and said, "Circulate through the towns of Judah every year and collect money from the people to repair The Temple of your God. You are in charge of carrying this out."
