Bible Verse Review

Why hast thou: 2 Samuel 24:3

the collection: This was the poll-tax fixed by Moses, of half a shekel, which was levied on every man of twenty years old and upwards, as "a ransom for their souls, that there might be no plague among them." Exodus 30:12-16

tabernacle: Numbers 1:50, Numbers 17:7, Numbers 17:8, Numbers 18:2, Acts 7:44

Reciprocal: Exodus 38:21 - tabernacle of testimony 2 Kings 12:7 - king Jehoash 2 Chronicles 24:9 - collection Matthew 13:20 - anon 2 Timothy 2:24 - the servant Revelation 15:3 - the servant

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And the king called for Jehoiada the chief,.... Who was either the high priest, or the head of his course, or, however, the chief of the priests and Levites concerned in this affair, and, indeed, was the chief or prime minister of state:

and said unto him, why hast thou not required of the Levites to bring in out of Judah, and out of Jerusalem, the collection; the money to repair the house they were ordered to collect, 2 Chronicles 25:6 according to the commandment

of Moses the servant of the Lord and of the congregation of Israel, for the tabernacle of witness? for the repair of it, such as Moses required, and the people used to pay, referring to the half shekel; or to a freewill offering of the people, Moses enjoined or directed to.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

It appears from 2 Kings 12:4 that Joash had assigned to the restoration-fund two other payments also.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 2 Chronicles 24:6. The collection - of Moses — This was the poll-tax, fixed by Moses, of half a shekel, which was levied on every man from twenty years old and upward; and which was considered as a ransom for their souls, that there might be no plague among them. See Exodus 30:12-14.
