2 Chronicles 34:11 Meaning and Commentary

2 Chronicles 34:11

Even to the artificers and builders gave they it
To the masons and carpenters:

to buy hewn stone;
to put in the room of that which was decayed or fallen down:

and timber for couplings;
of boards, beams, and rafters:

and to floor the houses;
the chambers, the apartments in the temple, which belonged to the priests and Levites:

which the kings of Judah had destroyed;
the idolatrous ones, who had let them go to decay and ruin, taking no care of them.

2 Chronicles 34:11 In-Context

9 qui venerunt ad Helciam sacerdotem magnum acceptamque ab eo pecuniam quae inlata fuerat in domum Domini et quam congregaverant Levitae ianitores de Manasse et Ephraim et universis reliquiis Israhel ab omni quoque Iuda et Beniamin et habitatoribus Hierusalem

10 tradiderunt in manibus eorum qui praeerant operariis in domo Domini ut instaurarent templum et infirma quaeque sarcirent

11 at illi dederunt eam artificibus et cementariis ut emerent lapides de lapidicinis et ligna ad commissuras aedificii et ad contignationem domorum quas destruxerant reges Iuda

12 qui fideliter cuncta faciebant erant autem praepositi operantium Iaath et Abdias de filiis Merari Zaccharias et Mosollam de filiis Caath qui urguebant opus omnes Levitae scientes organis canere

13 super eos vero qui ad varios usus onera portabant erant scribae et magistri de Levitis ianitores
