And the king called for Jehoiada the chief, and said unto him, Why hast thou not required of the Levites to bring in out of Judah and out of Jerusalem the collection, according to the commandment of Moses the servant of the LORD, and of the congregation of Israel, for the tabernacle of witness?
El rey llamó a Joiada el sumo sacerdote y le preguntó: '¿Por qué no has exigido a los levitas que recojan dinero de Judá y Jerusalén? Esta colecta fue ordenada por Moisés, el siervo del Señor, y por el pueblo de Israel para mantener el tabernáculo.'
El rey confrontó al sumo sacerdote por no cumplir con la colecta ordenada por Moisés para el mantenimiento del tabernáculo.
📚 Contexto Histórico
During the reign of King Joash in Judah, who was crowned as a young boy with the help of the priest Jehoiada after the overthrow of Queen Athaliah, the temple of God had fallen into disrepair due to neglect. The king confronted Jehoiada because the Levites had not collected the required contributions from the people, as originally commanded by Moses for the upkeep of the tabernacle, which symbolized God's presence among Israel. This incident reflects the broader biblical theme of covenant obedience in maintaining sacred spaces amidst political and spiritual challenges.
