¹ Ioas was seuen yeres olde when he began to raigne, & he raigned fourtie yeres in Hierusalem: His mothers name also was Zibia of Beerseba. ² And Ioas dyd that whiche was right in the sight of the Lorde all the dayes of Iehoiada the priest. ³ And Iehoiada toke him two wyues, and he begat sonnes and daughters. ⁴ And it chaunced after this, that Ioas was minded to renue the house of the Lorde. ⁵ And he gathered together the priestes and the Leuites, and sayde to them: Go out vnto the cities of Iuda, and gather of all Israel money to repaire the house of your God from yere to yere, and see that ye haste the thing: Howebeit the Leuites were slacke. ⁶ And the king called Iehoiada that was the chiefest, & sayd vnto him: Why requirest thou not of the Leuites to bring in out of Iuda and Hierusalem the collection of money, according to the commaundement of Moyses the seruaunt of the Lorde, and of the congregation of Israel for the tabernacle of witnesse? ⁷ For wicked Athaliahu and her children brake vp the house of God, and all the thinges that were dedicate for the house of the lord, did they bestow for Baalim. ⁸ And at the kinges commaundement they made a chest, and set it without at the gate of the house of the Lorde: ⁹ And made a proclamation through Iuda & Hierusalem, to bring in to the Lord the taxation of money that Moyses the seruaunt of God set vpon Israel in the wildernesse. ¹⁰ And the lordes and al the people reioysed, and brought in, & cast into the chest vntill it was full.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And he gathered together the priests and Levites,.... To communicate his mind unto, and give them a charge and instructions:

and said unto them, go out unto the cities of Judah, and gather of all Israel money to repair the house of your God from year to year; what money he means is more fully explained in 2 Kings 12:4,

and see that ye haste the matter; for he was very desirous of having this work accomplished, it being the place of the worship of God, and where he had been preserved in his infancy:

howbeit, the Levites hastened it not; either through negligence in them to collect the money, or backwardness in the people to give, or through an avaricious disposition to keep it, and use it for themselves; so that it was delayed unto the twenty third year of his reign 2 Kings 12:6.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 2 Chronicles 24:5. Gather of all Israel money — As the temple was the property of the whole nation, and the services performed in it were for the salvation of the people at large, it was right that each should come forward on an occasion of this kind, and lend a helping hand. This is the first instance of such a general collection for building or repairing a house of God.

From year to year — It must have been in a state of great dilapidation, when it required such annual exertions to bring it into a thorough state of repair.
