Context of 2 Chronicles 24:14
12The king and Jehoiada would give the money to the foremen who were working on the Lord’s temple, and they hired masons and carpenters to renovate the Lord’s temple. They also hired men who worked with iron and bronze to repair the Lord’s temple. 13As the men worked, the project progressed under the foremen’s guidance. They restored God’s temple to its proper condition and reinforced it. When they finished, they brought the rest of the money to the king and Jehoiada, who used it to make utensils for the Lord’s temple. They made dishes and gold and silver utensils for the service and for the offerings. As long as Jehoiada lived, they sacrificed burnt offerings in the Lord’s temple. 15When Jehoiada was old and had lived out his years, he died. He was 130 years old when he died. 16He was buried in the City of David with the kings because of the good he had done in Israel for God and the temple.
