Contextual Overview
4 In the seventh year Jehoiada the high priest sent for the captains of the Carites and guards. He brought them together in the Lord 's Temple and made an agreement with them. There in the Temple of the Lord he forced them to make a promise. Then he showed the king's son to them. 5 Then Jehoiada gave them a command. He said, "This is what you must do. One-third of you, from those who go on duty on the Sabbath day, must stand guard at the royal palace. 6 Another third will be at the Sur Gate, and the other third will be at the gate behind the guard. This way you will stand guard over the palace on all sides. 7 Your two divisions who go off duty on the Sabbath day will stand guard at the Lord 's Temple and protect King Joash. 8 You must stay with him wherever he goes. The whole group must surround the king. Each guard must have his weapon in his hand, and you must kill anyone who comes too close to you." 9 The captains obeyed everything that Jehoiada the priest commanded. Each captain took his men, both those who were going on duty on the Sabbath day and those who were going off duty. All these men went to Jehoiada the priest, 10 and he gave spears and shields to the captains. These were the spears and shields David put in the Lord 's Temple. 11 These guards stood with their weapons in their hands from the right corner of the Temple to the left corner. They stood around the altar and the Temple and around the king when he went to the Temple. 12 These men brought out Joash. They put the crown on him and gave him a copy of the agreement. Then they anointed him and made him the new king. They clapped their hands and shouted, "Long live the king!"

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And to the captains over hundreds did the priest give King David's spears and shields, that were in the temple of the Lord. Such as he had taken in war from his enemies, and had dedicated for the service of the temple, to defend it on occasion, and laid up there; those the priests gave to the captains, to arm their men with, who came unarmed, and so unsuspected, and in this way might be armed without being seen and known.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 2 Kings 11:10. King David's spears and shields — Josephus expressly says that David had provided an arsenal for the temple, out of which Jehoiada took those arms. His words are; ÎÎ½Î¿Î¹Î¾Î±Ï Î´Îµ ÎÏÎ±Î´Î¿Ï Ïην εν ÏÏÍ Î¹ÌεÏÏÍ Î¿ÌÏλοθηκην, ηÌν ÎÎ±Î²Î¹Î´Î·Ï ÎºÎ±ÏεÏÎºÎµÏ Î±Ïε, διεμεÏιÏε ÏÎ¿Î¹Ï ÎµÌκαÏονÏαÏÏÎ±Î¹Ï Î±Ìμα και ιÌεÏοιÏι και ÎÎµÏ Î¹ÏÎ±Î¹Ï Î±ÌÏανθ' οÌÏα ÎµÏ ÌÏεν εν Î±Ï ÏÎ·Í Î´Î¿ÏαÏα Ïε και ÏαÏεÏÏαÏ, και ει Ïι εÌÏεÏον ÎµÎ¹Î´Î¿Ï Î¿ÌÏÎ»Î¿Ï ÎºÎ±Ïελαβε. "And Jehoiada having opened the arsenal in the temple, which David had prepared, he divided among the centurions, priests, and Levites, the spears, (arrows,) and quivers, and all other kinds of weapons which he found there." - Ant. lib. ix., c. 7, s. 8.
