24:2 And Joash did [that which was] right in the sight of the LORD all the days of {a} Jehoiada the priest.
(a) Who was a faithful counsellor and governed him by the word of God.
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.
