2 Chronik 31:10

Da antwortete ihm Asarja, der Oberpriester vom Hause Zadok, und sprach: Seitdem man angefangen hat, das Hebopfer in das Haus des Herrn zu bringen, hat man gegessen und ist satt geworden und hat noch viel übriggelassen; denn der Herr hat sein Volk gesegnet; daher ist eine so große Menge übriggeblieben.

Und Asarja, der Priester, der Vornehmste im Hause Zadok, sprach zu ihm: Seit der Zeit, da man angefangen hat, die Hebe zu bringen ins Haus des HERRN, haben wir gegessen und sind satt geworden, und ist noch viel übriggeblieben; denn der HERR hat sein Volk gesegnet, darum ist dieser Haufe übriggeblieben.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And Azariah the chief priest of the house of Zadok answered him,.... Who was the high priest of the family of Eleazar, in the line of Zadok, made high priest in Solomon's time, when Abiathar was thrust out; Jarchi takes him to be the same Azariah that was in the days of Uzziah, 2 Chronicles 26:17,

and said, since the people began to bring the offerings into the house of the Lord we have had enough to eat, and have left plenty; which were now four mouths since; and the priests and Levites, and their families, had partaken of them, and eat to satiety, and yet there was great plenty remaining:

for the Lord hath blessed his people: the Targum is,

"the Word of the Lord has blessed them,''

given them large crops this year, and a ready willing mind to bring in what is due for the service of the temple:

and that which is left is this great store; the heaps the king and princes saw, and inquired about; or what is left is for the great multitude of the priests and Levites, and their families, both at Jerusalem, and in the cities in the country; so Kimchi interprets it.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

If this Azariah was the same as he who resisted Uzziah 2 Chronicles 26:17-20, he must have held his office at least 33 years. Compare 2 Chronicles 27:1; 2 Chronicles 28:1.

The Lord hath blessed his people - i. e. God has made the harvest unusually abundant, and hence the great amount of tithes and first-fruits.
