ויהי בעת יביא את הארון אל פקדת המלך ביד הלוים וכראותם כי רב הכסף ובא סופר המלך ופקיד כהן הראש ויערו את הארון וישאהו וישיבהו אל מקמו כה עשו ליום ביום ויאספו כסף לרב
וַיְהִ֡י בְּעֵת֩ יָבִ֨יא אֶת־הָֽאָרֹ֜ון אֶל־פְּקֻדַּ֣ת הַמֶּלֶךְ֮ בְּיַ֣ד הַלְוִיִּם֒ וְכִרְאוֹתָ֞ם כִּי־רַ֣ב הַכֶּ֗סֶף וּבָ֨א סוֹפֵ֤ר הַמֶּ֙לֶךְ֙ וּפְקִיד֙ כֹּהֵ֣ן הָרֹ֔אשׁ וִיעָ֙רוּ֙ אֶת־הָ֣אָרֹ֔ון וְיִשָּׂאֻ֖הוּ וִֽישִׁיבֻ֣הוּ אֶל־מְקֹמֹ֑ו כֹּ֤ה עָשׂוּ֙ לְיֹ֣ום ׀ בְּיֹ֔ום וַיַּֽאַסְפוּ־כֶ֖סֶף לָרֹֽב ׃
וַיְהִי בְּעֵת יָבִיא אֶת־הָֽאָרוֹן אֶל־פְּקֻדַּת הַמֶּלֶךְ בְּיַד הַלְוִיִּם וְכִרְאוֹתָם כִּי־רַב הַכֶּסֶף וּבָא סוֹפֵר הַמֶּלֶךְ וּפְקִיד כֹּהֵן הָרֹאשׁ וִיעָרוּ אֶת־הָאָרוֹן וְיִשָּׂאֻהוּ וִֽישִׁיבֻהוּ אֶל־מְקֹמוֹ כֹּה עָשׂוּ לְיוֹם ׀ בְּיוֹם וַיַּֽאַסְפוּ־כֶסֶף לָרֹֽב ׃
Bible Verse Review
from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge
at what time: 2 Kings 12:10-12
the king's scribe: It was necessary to associate with the high priest some civil authority and activity, in order to get the neglected work performed.
Thus they did: 1 Corinthians 16:2
Reciprocal: 2 Kings 12:11 - gave the money 2 Chronicles 31:5 - as soon 2 Chronicles 34:9 - they delivered Ecclesiastes 10:19 - but
Gill's Notes on the Bible
Now it came to pass, that at what time the chest was brought unto the king's office by the hand of the Levites,.... The place where his officer or officers met, appointed for this service; very probably in one of the chambers of the temple,
and when they saw that there was much money: see 2 Kings 12:10,
the king's scribe; or secretary:
and the high priest's officer; his "sagan", or deputy priest:
came and emptied the chest; poured out the money, and told it, and put it up in bags, 2 Kings 12:10 and took it, and carried it to its place again, 2 Chronicles 24:8, by the hands of the Levites that brought it;
and thus they did day by day; as often as the chest was full, or they perceived there was much in it:
and gathered money in abundance; enough to repair the house, ornament it, and furnish it with vessels that were wanting.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
The king’s scribe ... came and emptied ... - Rather, “the king’s scribe came ... and they emptied” etc. i. e. the Levites who brought the chest from the temple emptied it in the presence of the scribe.
