Joash Repels.% the Tempienes2, Kings
11: 21-12: 10.
Commentary,1. Joh dehoiana
(Ve, 21.19.3). Upon delioiatleS -rettnd a
grave respaosibilitn iu direetines the af-
fairs of the kingdOin eaguide ond in-
etruetoe of Oa:oven-year-old king of
Judah. Joash was Stile youngest king
that ever teigned over judah, the only
one approttehing him in youthfulness
koing .Josiah, woo began toreign at
the age of eight year& Jeholada's train-
ing was effective in that Jonah under
his guidance did "right in the eight of
the Lord," .net "the, high. places were
not taken away(v. .3). "This saerifie-
ing high places was not idolatry; they
worshipped jeltovah, the true Cod, on
elevated spots, and therefore by the
high places so frequently. mentioned we
7nust not understand -idolatrous shrines."
--Whedon. Then; Was great danger of
this worship becoming idolatrous from
ite resemblance to heathen custom&
Jerusalem wits designed to be the true
centre of religions worship.
11. An attempt to repair the temple
(vs. 4-8), 4. Jelentsh—Another form of
,foa) i2 Kiiige 11. 2). Said to the
priests- The importmit work of eolleet-
inveoney for repairing the temple was
conbuitted to the priests. Joash must
have been more then a, mere child at
the, time he gave this order to the
priests. Ile probably was a man grown.
Ali the money of the dedicated thinge—
This includes whatever was devoted to
sacred uses. Memey was not coined at
that. tinte, but the gold and silver were
veined aecording to their weight. 'rhe
latter clauses; of this verse indicate the
three sources; of revenue for the sup-
port of the religious system among the
Jews. The money of every one 1hat
passeth the toseount--Rathert "'than
passeth the minimising," as in R. V.,
margin. This was the half -shekel re-
quired of all the men fron twenty years
old and upward, extesetinn, old men and
the Levites (Exod. 30. 12-10: Num. 1.
42, 45, 47). and was equivalent to about
thirty-two cent. Tbe money that every
man is set at—The amount paid into the
isseasury of the temple in eonneetion
with special vows and estimated amend-
ing to Lev. 27. 1-8. Genteel into env
enan's heart--Enne-will offerings. 5.
Every man of his acquaintance—From
this verse and from 2 Chron. 24. 5.it
seems clear that. the priests and Levites
were directed to go throughout judah
eolleeting money for repairing the tem-
ple. Repair the breathes of the bowie—
The temple had been the borne of Joash

in his childiood, and he had opportunity
to observe its condition. It, had been
neglected for scare and had been brok-
en up by:the sons of Athahah (2 Chron.
24. 7).
6. In the three and twentieth year—
Joash was then thirty years old, and
his command must have been given to
the priests eight or ten years before thie.
We have no means of knowing exactly.
The priests had nut repaired --The
money that was collected was used for
the support of the priests and the tem-
ple service, and nothing was. 'used to
make repairs ordered by ,foash. It is
probable that the income was not large
owing to the prevalence of idolatry and
the •litc.k of earnestness on the part of
the priests and Levites. 7. Called for
jeholada.--The high priest was old and
possibly indifferent as to the condition
of the house of the Lord, having been
long accustomed to its dilapidated state.
Since he had full charge of this work it
Wfts proper that he should be called to
account for his negleet. Receive no. moan
—Their eommissaon was withdraw%
and no more money for repairs was to
be entrusted to them, and they were to
hand over to others whatever might be
on band for the purpose. 8. Consented
--Their work ita connection with the re -
nailing of the temple was at an end. Tho
first attempt of Joaell to accomplish a

The contributions went through the
hands of the priests, rend there is no inti-
mation that they had meted diehonentlY
itt any- time. Brought into the house of
the Lord—lt was expected that the peo-
ple would give more when the collection
was appointed for the special purpose of
repairing the temple, than when they
were to give the legal and voluntary
payments only to the priests., whereby
no giver knew how mueh of ifenight be
applied for the. building,—Kell. 10.
Much money in the ehest—People are
more free to give when they are assured
that the eauett is worthy .and their gifts
and for a epeeine purpoee, and the
money will be 'devoted etrietly to that

"Joash was minded to repair the bone
of the Lord." (2 Citron., 94:4), but the
priestss who should have been intensely
interested, seenwd rather indifferent
and he takes them to task about it.
If there is need of .earnestness in regard
to temporal affairs,.how much more is
it necessary respecitng our spiritual
well-being. A lady stood at the close
of a S'ervice, conversing with a poor man
in reference to, his soul's ealvatien. :.Not

she pressed him. Again and again would
he have turned away, but she held hint.
It was after ten o'clock and still she
pleaded. with him. At length, be yielded,
and together they knelt and prayed. for
his pardon. When he rose frem bis
knees there was a happy smile on his
face, as he said, "1 am saved." " They
parted. The next morning word was
brought- to the lady that the TIM had
died of heart disease at twelve o'clock,
lees than two hours after he had left
her.
"The pu-h'st took a 'chest and bored
a hole in the lid . . - set it beside
the altar" (v. 9). itis saii that more
money is spent unniaelly for chewing
gum than for foreiga missions. One
hundred times as much is spent for to-
bacco as for the heathen. Nearly two
hundred times as muelt is spent for 11-
tim to muin the world es is spent for
the gospel to save it. 't 'omen pay more
for feathers and flowers than to save
the world. If men professing Christian-
ity Would abstain from tobacco, and
women from feathers' aud flowers and
devote the money to missions; the glad
tidings might be sent to every dark cor-
ner in the world.
"They gave . and repaired there-
with the house of the Lord" (v.14). "A
cold, indifferent people will not be
greatly interested in their house of
worship. while a church, where warm
and zealous love prevails, will care for
the holy piece with agenueh enthusiasms
es in providing for their homes." A grease

interests of God's cause.
