2 Chronicles 24:13 Meaning and Commentary

2 Chronicles 24:13

So the workmen wrought
The masons, carpenters, blacksmiths, and brasiers:

and the work was perfected by them;
the business of repairs was completely finished:

and they set the house of God in his state;
as it was at first:

and strengthened it;
so that it seemed as firm and stable as when first built.

2 Chronicles 24:13 In-Context

11 When the Levites would take the box to the king's officers, they would see that it was full of money. Then the king's royal secretary and the leading priest's officer would come and take out the money and return the box to its place. They did this often and gathered much money.

12 King Joash and Jehoiada gave the money to the people who worked on the Temple of the Lord. And they hired stoneworkers and carpenters to repair the Temple of the Lord. They also hired people to work with iron and bronze to repair the Temple.

13 The people worked hard, and the work to repair the Temple went well. They rebuilt the Temple of God to be as it was before, but even stronger.

14 When the workers finished, they brought the money that was left to King Joash and Jehoiada. They used that money to make utensils for the Temple of the Lord, utensils for the service in the Temple and for the burnt offerings, and bowls and other utensils from gold and silver. Burnt offerings were given every day in the Temple of the Lord while Jehoiada was alive.

15 Jehoiada grew old and lived many years. Then he died when he was one hundred thirty years old.
