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
This occurs during King Joash's reign when he was trying to repair the temple that had been neglected and damaged during previous reigns. The collection refers to the half-shekel tax that Moses had established for maintaining the tabernacle, which later applied to the temple. Jehoiada the priest had been Joash's mentor and regent, but apparently the temple repairs were proceeding too slowly.
