2 Chronicles 24:10

And all the princes and all the people rejoiced, and brought in, and cast into the chest, until they had made an end.

EXPOSITORY (ENGLISH BIBLE)

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary

24:1-14 Joash is more zealous about the repair of the temple than Jehoiada himself. It is easier to build temples, than to be temples to God. But the repairing of places for public worship is a good work, which all should promote. And many a good work would be done that now lies undone, if active men would put it forward.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

It appears from 2 Kings 12:4 that Joash had assigned to the restoration-fund two other payments also.

Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Bible Commentary

4-14. Joash was minded to repair the house of the Lord—(See on [451]2Ki 12:4-16).

Matthew Poole's Commentary

No text from Poole on this verse.

Gill's Exposition of the Entire Bible

And all the princes and all the people rejoiced,.... When they heard the proclamation, and understood for what use the money was to be given, and in what manner; all was agreeable and pleasing to them:

and brought in, and cast into the chest; through the hole that was in the lid of it, 2 Kings 12:9,

until they had made an end: everyone had given as much as he could, or thought fit to give.

Geneva Study Bible

And all the princes and all the people rejoiced, and brought in, and cast into the chest, until they had made an end.

EXEGETICAL (ORIGINAL LANGUAGES)

Pulpit Commentary

Verse 10. - Until they had made an end; Hebrew, לְכִּלֵּה, piel infin. The meaning can scarcely be till enough was obtained, because day after day, as the next verso tells us, the chest was brought; but either till those who had come that day to give had all given in their contributions, or, as some think with much less probability, till the chest was full for the day. At the same time, the clause, occupying only one word in the original, may quite possibly purport to state summarily by anticipation that the same system was observed to the end, and the method of the chest not departed from. 2 Chronicles 24:10

Keil and Delitzsch Biblical Commentary on the Old Testament

As to the repair of the temple, see the commentary on 2 Kings 12:5-17, where both the formal divergences and the essential agreement of the two narratives are pointed out.
