Theological / Devotional

Any vessels. During the work of repairing the Temple building no money was diverted for any other purpose, not even for the replacing of vessels for the Temple services. When the work was completed, the surplus was brought before the king and the chief priest, who directed that it be used for vessels for the house of the Lord (2 Chronicles 24:14). The need for supplying new bowls, etc., arose because Athaliah had bestowed the dedicated articles of God’s house to Baalim (2 Chronicles 24:7).
