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.
