Context of 2 Chronicles 34:14

12The men worked faithfully. Their supervisors were Jahath and Obadiah (Levites descended from Merari), as well as Zechariah and Meshullam (descendants of Kohath). The Levites, all of whom were skilled musicians, 13supervised the laborers and all the foremen on their various jobs. Some of the Levites were scribes, officials, and guards. When they took out the silver that had been brought to the Lord’s temple, Hilkiah the priest found the law scroll the Lord had given to Moses. 15Hilkiah informed Shaphan the scribe, “I found the law scroll in the Lord’s temple.” Hilkiah gave the scroll to Shaphan. 16Shaphan brought the scroll to the king and reported, “Your servants are doing everything assigned to them.
