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, and he reigned in Jerusalem forty years. His mother was Zibiah from Beersheba.

2 Joash did what was pleasing in the LORD ’s sight throughout the lifetime of Jehoiada the priest.

3 Jehoiada chose two wives for Joash, and he had sons and daughters.

4 At one point Joash decided to repair and restore the Temple of the LORD .

5 He summoned the priests and Levites and gave them these instructions: “Go to all the towns of Judah and collect the required annual offerings, so that we can repair the Temple of your God. Do not delay!” But the Levites did not act immediately.
