2 Chronicles 24:25

24:25 When they withdrew, they left Joash 1  badly wounded. His servants plotted against him because of what he had done to 2  the son 3  of Jehoiada the priest. They murdered him on his bed. Thus 4  he died and was buried in the City of David, 5  but not in the tombs of the kings.

2 Chronicles 31:10

31:10 Azariah, the head priest from the family of Zadok, said to him, “Since the contributions began arriving in the Lord’s temple, we have had plenty to eat and have a large quantity left over. For the Lord has blessed his people, and this large amount remains.”

2 Chronicles 34:9

34:9 They went to Hilkiah the high priest and gave him the silver that had been brought to God’s temple. The Levites who guarded the door had collected it from the people of 6  Manasseh and Ephraim and from all who were left in Israel, as well as from all the people of 7  Judah and Benjamin and the residents of 8  Jerusalem.

1 tn Heb “him”; the referent (Joash) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

2 tn Heb “because of the shed blood of.”

3 tc The MT has the plural בְּנֵי (bÿney, “sons”), but the final yod is dittographic. Note the yod that immediately follows.

4 tn Heb “and he died.”

5 sn The phrase the City of David refers here to the fortress of Zion in Jerusalem, not to Bethlehem. See 2 Sam 5:7.

6 tn Heb “from Manasseh and Ephraim.” The words “the people of” are supplied in the translation for clarity. The Hebrew text uses the names “Manasseh and Ephraim” here by metonymy for the people of Manasseh and Ephraim.

7 tn Heb “all Judah and Benjamin.” The words “the people of” are supplied in the translation for clarity. The Hebrew text uses the names “Judah and Benjamin” here by metonymy for the people of Judah and Benjamin.

8 tc The Hebrew consonantal text (Kethib) assumes the reading, “and the residents of.” The marginal reading (Qere) is “and they returned.”
