Contextual Overview

1Joash was seven years old when he became king, and he reigned for forty years in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Zibiah from Beersheba. 2Joash did what was right in the sight of the LORD all the days of Jehoiada the priest [his uncle]. 3Jehoiada took two wives for him, and he fathered sons and daughters. 4Now it came about after this that Joash decided to restore the house (temple) of the LORD. 5He gathered the priests and the Levites and said to them, "Go out to the cities of Judah and collect money from all Israel to repair the house of your God from year to year; and see that you do it quickly." But the Levites did not act quickly. 6So the king called for Jehoiada the high priest and said to him, "Why have you not required the Levites to bring in from Judah and Jerusalem the tax for the tent of the testimony which was authorized by Moses, the servant of the LORD and the servant of the assembly of Israel?" 7For the sons of Athaliah, that wicked woman, had broken into the house of God and also had used all the holy and dedicated things of the house of the LORD for the Baals. 8So at the king's command they made a chest and set it outside by the gate of the house of the LORD. 9Then they made a proclamation in Judah and Jerusalem to bring in for the LORD the tax that Moses the servant of God imposed on Israel in the wilderness. 10All the officers and all the people rejoiced and brought their tax and dropped it into the chest until they had finished [and the chest was full].

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And all the princes and all the people rejoiced,.... When they heard the proclamation, and understood for what use the money was to be given, and in what manner; all was agreeable and pleasing to them:

and brought in, and cast into the chest; through the hole that was in the lid of it, 2 Kings 12:9,

until they had made an end: everyone had given as much as he could, or thought fit to give.
