In the Hebrew context, "accounts" (Hebrew: דִּבְרֵי, divrei) often implies detailed chronicles or narratives. The mention of his sons suggests a continuation of lineage and the importance of family legacy in the Davidic line. Historically, the recording of royal offspring was crucial for maintaining the legitimacy of the throne and ensuring the continuity of God's covenant with David.the many oracles about him The term "oracles" (Hebrew: מַשָּׂא, massa) can be understood as prophetic utterances or burdens. This indicates that there were significant prophetic messages concerning Joash's reign. In the biblical tradition, oracles often served as divine commentary on a king's actions, providing both warnings and affirmations. The presence of "many" oracles suggests that Joash's reign was a period of considerable divine communication, reflecting the spiritual and moral complexities of his leadership.and the restoration of the house of God This phrase highlights one of Joash's notable achievements—repairing the temple. The "restoration" (Hebrew: חִדּוּשׁ, chiddush) signifies a renewal or revival, which in this context, refers to the physical and spiritual rejuvenation of the temple. The "house of God" (Hebrew: בֵּית אֱלֹהִים, Beit Elohim) was central to Israelite worship and identity. Joash's efforts to restore the temple underscore his initial commitment to honoring God and maintaining the religious heritage of Israel, a task that was both a spiritual duty and a political necessity.are indeed written in the Treatise of the Book of the Kings This phrase points to the existence of other historical records, specifically the "Treatise of the Book of the Kings" (Hebrew: סֵפֶר מַלְכֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל, Sefer Malchei Yisrael). This suggests that the chronicler had access to a broader corpus of historical documents, which provided additional details about Joash's reign. The use of "indeed" (Hebrew: הִנֵּה, hinneh) emphasizes the reliability and authenticity of these records, affirming the chronicler's account as part of a larger, divinely inspired historical narrative.And his son Amaziah reigned in his place This phrase marks the transition of power from Joash to his son Amaziah. The succession of Amaziah (Hebrew: אֲמַצְיָה, Amatzyah) signifies the continuation of the Davidic line, which was crucial for the fulfillment of God's promises to David. The phrase "reigned in his place" (Hebrew: וַיִּמְלֹךְ תַּחְתָּיו, vayimloch tachtav) indicates a peaceful transfer of power, which was not always guaranteed in the turbulent history of Judah. This transition underscores the providential hand of God in maintaining the Davidic dynasty, despite the challenges and failures of individual kings.<div class="vheading2"><a href="/commentaries/ellicott/2_chronicles/24.htm">Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers</a></div>(27) Now concerning his sons, and the greatness of the burdens laid upon him, and the repairing of the house of God.--Rather, And his sons, and the multitude of oracles upon him, and the founding of the house of God. The word "burden" (massa')is common in the sense of a threatening prophecy (<a href="/2_kings/9-25.htm" title="Then said Jehu to Bidkar his captain, Take up, and cast him in the portion of the field of Naboth the Jezreelite: for remember how that, when I and you rode together after Ahab his father, the LORD laid this burden on him;">2Kings 9:25</a>; <a href="/isaiah/13-1.htm" title="The burden of Babylon, which Isaiah the son of Amoz did see.">Isaiah 13:1</a>; <a href="/habakkuk/1-1.htm" title="The burden which Habakkuk the prophet did see.">Habakkuk 1:1</a>). In <a href="/2_chronicles/24-19.htm" title="Yet he sent prophets to them, to bring them again to the LORD; and they testified against them: but they would not give ear.">2Chronicles 24:19</a> it is expressly said that prophets were sent to warn the princes of Judah. If this be the meaning here, the word massa' is used collectively. Another possible rendering is, "and the greatness of the tribute laid upon him" by Hazael. (Comp. <a href="/2_chronicles/17-11.htm" title="Also some of the Philistines brought Jehoshaphat presents, and tribute silver; and the Arabians brought him flocks, seven thousand and seven hundred rams, and seven thousand and seven hundred he goats.">2Chronicles 17:11</a> for this sense of massa') The Heb. margin suggests, and as to his sons, may the burden concerning him multiply;" i.e., may the dying words of Zechariah be fulfilled in them even more disastrously! This is wholly improbable.In the story of the book of the kings.--See margin, and Introduction. . . . <div class="vheading2"><a href="/commentaries/pulpit/2_chronicles/24.htm">Pulpit Commentary</a></div>Verse 27. - His sons. We only know of one, Amaziah, his successor. The burdens laid upon him. Some explain this expression of the tribute and bribe Joash had to pay Hazael; others of prophetic "burdens" uttered against him; and others (much favoured by the position of the clause just before the repairing of the house, etc.) of the task which he had so voluntarily undertaken, the money-raising and all (<a href="/ezekiel/24-25.htm">Ezekiel 24:25</a>; comp. our vers. 6, 9, 11). The repairing; Hebrew, וִיסור. Render, with the Revised Version, the rebuilding. The story of the book of the kings. The Revised Version renders the Hebrew text (מִדְּרַשׁ סֵפֶר) "the commentary of the book of the kings," probably to be followed by the words, "of Judah;" the parallel has "the book of the Chronicles [סִפֶד דִּבְרֵי הַיָמִים] of the kings of Judah" (see our Introduction, 1 Chronicles, § 5, pp. 7-10.). The word rendered "story" or "commentary" in our text is employed only once beside (<a href="/2_chronicles/13-22.htm">2 Chronicles 13:22</a>). Its verbal root, however, is found about a hundred and sixty-two times, invariably in the sense of inquiring, and almost invariably rendered in the Authorized Version by the word "inquire," or "seek;" so that perhaps the word "study" or "pursuit" might, idioms being allowed for, be the nearer rendering. It is rabbinic literature mostly that has determined the preference for the word "commentary." <a href="/commentaries/2_chronicles/24-27.htm">Parallel Commentaries ...</a> <a name="lexicon" id="lexicon"></a><div class="vheading">Hebrew</div>The accounts of the sons [of Joash], וּבָנָ֞יו (ū·ḇā·nāw) Conjunctive waw | Noun - masculine plural construct | third person masculine singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_1121.htm">Strong's 1121: </a> A son as well as the many ורב (wə·rōḇ) Conjunctive waw | Noun - masculine singular construct <a href="/hebrew/.htm">Strong's Hebrew</a> oracles הַמַּשָּׂ֣א (ham·maś·śā) Article | Noun - masculine singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_4853.htm">Strong's 4853: </a> A burden, tribute, porterage, an utterance, chiefly a, doom, singing, mental, desire about him עָלָ֗יו (‘ā·lāw) Preposition | third person masculine singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_5921.htm">Strong's 5921: </a> Above, over, upon, against and about the restoration וִיסוֹד֙ (wî·sō·wḏ) Conjunctive waw | Verb - Qal - Infinitive construct <a href="/hebrew/strongs_3247.htm">Strong's 3247: </a> Foundation, base of the house בֵּ֣ית (bêṯ) Noun - masculine singular construct <a href="/hebrew/strongs_1004.htm">Strong's 1004: </a> A house of God, הָאֱלֹהִ֔ים (hā·’ĕ·lō·hîm) Article | Noun - masculine plural <a href="/hebrew/strongs_430.htm">Strong's 430: </a> gods -- the supreme God, magistrates, a superlative they [are] indeed הִנָּ֣ם (hin·nām) Interjection | third person masculine plural <a href="/hebrew/strongs_2005.htm">Strong's 2005: </a> Lo!
