2 Chronicles 24:12 - Exposition

Gave it to such as did the work of the service ; i.e. the persons responsible for the work, or "that had the oversight of it" ( 2 Kings 12:11 ). Carpenters . It is preferable to render here literally workmen or workers. Probably this clause purports that those responsible, as above, hired masons and workmen. And also such as wrought. Supply the preposition found in the Hebrew text, "to" before "such," and render again the same word ( חָרָשֵׁי ) literally, workers of iron and brass.
