Contextual Overview
4 In the seventh year, Jehoiada sent for the captains of hundreds, men who watch over the king and the soldiers. He brought them into the house of the Lord, and made an agreement with them. He had them make a promise in the house of the Lord. Then he showed them the king's son. 5 He told them, "This is what you must do. One third of you who come in on the Day of Rest must keep watch over the king's house. 6 One third are to be at the gate Sur and one third at the gate behind the soldiers. So you will keep watch over the king's house. 7 And two parts of all of you who go out on the Day of Rest must keep watch over the house of the Lord for the king. 8 You will stand around the king, with spears in your hands. Whoever comes near must be killed. Be with the king when he goes out and when he comes in." 9 The captains of hundreds did all that Jehoiada the religious leader told them to do. Each one of them brought his men to Jehoiada the religious leader. Each one brought those who were to come in on the Day of Rest, and those who were to go out on the Day of Rest. 10 The religious leader gave the captains the spears and coverings that had been King David's, which were in the house of the Lord. 11 And the soldiers stood from the right side of the house to the left side of the house. Each one held his spear. They stood by the altar and by the house, around the king. 12 Then Jehoiada brought out the king's son and put the crown on him, and gave him the Law. They made him king and poured oil on him. Then they clapped their hands and said, "Long live the king!"
