2 Reis 22:7 Meaning and Commentary

2 Kings 22:7

Howbeit, there was no reckoning made with them of the money
that was delivered into their hand
No account was kept between the high priest, and the king's scribe who delivered the money and the overseers of the workmen, who received it from them the latter were not called to any account by the former, nor any audit made of their accounts:

because they dealt faithfully:
they were persons of such known honour and integrity, that their fidelity was not in the least called in question, but were trusted without examining their accounts, and how they disposed of the money committed to them, see ( 2 Kings 12:15 ) .

6 os carpinteiros, os construtores e os pedreiros. Além disso comprarão madeira e pedras lavradas para os reparos no templo.
7 Mas eles não precisarão prestar contas da prata que lhes foi confiada, pois estão agindo com honestidade”.
