Contextual Overview

1 Josiah was eight years old when he became king, and he ruled thirty-one years in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Jedidah daughter of Adaiah, who was from Bozkath. 2 Josiah did what the Lord said was right. He lived as his ancestor David had lived, and he did not stop doing what was right. 3 In Josiah's eighteenth year as king, he sent Shaphan to the Temple of the Lord . Shaphan son of Azaliah, the son of Meshullam, was the royal secretary. Josiah said, 4 "Go up to Hilkiah the high priest, and have him empty out the money the gatekeepers have gathered from the people. This is the money they have brought into the Temple of the Lord . 5 Have him give the money to the supervisors of the work on the Temple of the Lord . They must pay the workers who repair the Temple of the Lord — 6 the carpenters, builders, and bricklayers. Also use the money to buy timber and cut stone to repair the Temple. 7 They do not need to report how they use the money given to them, because they are working honestly." 8 Hilkiah the high priest said to Shaphan the royal secretary, "I've found the Book of the Teachings in the Temple of the Lord ." He gave it to Shaphan, who read it. 9 Then Shaphan the royal secretary went to the king and reported to Josiah, "Your officers have paid out the money that was in the Temple of the Lord . They have given it to the workers and supervisors at the Temple." 10 Then Shaphan the royal secretary told the king, "Hilkiah the priest has given me a book." And Shaphan read from the book to the king.

Cross-References

Hebrews 11:19
Abraham believed that God could raise the dead, and really, it was as if Abraham got Isaac back from death.
Hebrews 12:1
We are surrounded by a great cloud of people whose lives tell us what faith means. So let us run the race that is before us and never give up. We should remove from our lives anything that would get in the way and the sin that so easily holds us back.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And let them deliver it into the hand of the doers of the work,

that have the oversight of the house of the Lord,.... That were overseers of the workmen, whose names are mentioned, 2 Chronicles 34:12 into their hands the money was to be delivered by the high priest, when he had taken the account of it, and perhaps along with the king's scribe, see 2 Kings 12:10,

and let them give it to the doers of the work, which is in the house of the Lord, to repair the breaches of the house as their wages for their work; it seems it had not been repaired from the times of Jehoash, a space of two hundred and eighteen years, according to the Jewish chronology m; but Kimchi and Abarbinel make it two hundred and twenty four.

m Seder Olam Rabba, c. 24. p. 67.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

See the marginal reference. The “doers” of the first part of the verse are the contractors, or overseers, who undertook the general superintendence; they are to be distinguished from a lower class of “doers,” the actual laborers, carpenters, and masons of the latter portion of the verse.

Which is in the house of the Lord - Rather, “who are,” etc.; i. e., the persons who were actually employed in the temple.
