Contextual Overview
1 Joash was a son of seven years when he became king, and he reigned forty years in Jerusalem; and the name of his mother was Zibiah of Beer-sheba. 2 And Joash did the right in the eyes of Jehovah all the days of Jehoiada the priest. 3 And Jehoiada took two wives for him, and he fathered sons and daughters. 4 And after this it happened; it had been in the heart of Joash to renew the house of Jehovah; 5 and he gathered the priests and the Levites, and said to them, Go out to the cities of Judah, and gather from all Israel money to repair the house of your God fully from year to year; and you shall do the matter quickly. But the Levites didnot act quickly. 6 And the king called for Jehoiada the head, and said to him, Why have you not required the Levites to bring in out of Judah and out of Jerusalem the offering of Moses, the servant of Jehovah, and of the congregation of Israel, for the tabernacle of the testimony? 7 For the sons of Athaliah, the wicked one, have broken up the house of God, and also they have prepared all the holy things of the house of Jehovah for the Baals. 8 And the king commanded, and they made one chest, and put it at the gate of the house of Jehovah outside; 9 and they gave a call in Judah and in Jerusalem to bring in to Jehovah the tribute of Moses, the servant of God, laid on Israel in the wilderness. 10 And all the leaders, and all the people rejoiced; and they brought in and threw into the chest until it was finished.
