Context of 2 Kings 22:6
4“Go up to Hilkiah the kohen gadol and let him weigh the silver that has been brought to the House of Adonai, which the doorkeepers have gathered from the people. 5Then let them give it into the hand of the workmen appointed to oversee the work on the House of Adonai and let them in turn give it to the workmen that are in the House of Adonai to repair the damages to the House: to the carpenters, builders and masons, and for buying timber and cut stone to repair the House.” 7However, there was no accounting made with them for the silver given into their hand, for they dealt faithfully. 8Hilkiah the kohen gadol said to Shaphan the scribe, “I have found a scroll of the Torah in the House of Adonai.” So Hilkiah gave the scroll to Shaphan who read it.
