■ 역대하 31장
1. 이 모든 일이 마치매 거기 있는 이스라엘 무리가 나가서 유다 여러 성읍에 이르러 주상을 깨뜨리며 아세라 목상을 찍으며 유다와 베냐민과 에브라임과 므낫세 온 땅에서 산당과 단을 제하여 멸하고 이스라엘 모든 자손이 각각 그 본성 기업으로 돌아갔더라
Now when all this was finished , all Israel that were present went out to the cities of Judah , and brake the images in pieces , and cut down the groves , and threw down the high places and the altars out of all Judah and Benjamin , in Ephraim also and Manasseh , until they had utterly destroyed them all. Then all the children of Israel returned , every man to his possession , into their own cities .
2. 히스기야가 제사장들과 레위 사람들의 반차를 정하고 각각 그 직임을 행하게 하되 곧 제사장들과 레위 사람들로 번제와 화목제를 드리며 여호와의 영문에서 섬기며 감사하며 찬송하게 하고
And Hezekiah appointed the courses of the priests and the Levites after their courses , every man according to his service , the priests and Levites for burnt offerings and for peace offerings , to minister , and to give thanks , and to praise in the gates of the tents of the Lord .
3. 또 자기 재산 중에서 얼마를 정하여 여호와의 율법에 기록된 대로 번제 곧 조석 번제와 안식일과 초하루와 절기의 번제에 쓰게 하고
He appointed also the king’s portion of his substance for the burnt offerings , to wit, for the morning and evening burnt offerings , and the burnt offerings for the sabbaths , and for the new moons , and for the set feasts , as it is written in the law of the Lord .
4. 또 예루살렘에 거한 백성을 명하여 제사장들과 레위 사람들의 응식을 주어 저희로 여호와의 율법을 힘쓰게 하라 한지라
Moreover he commanded the people that dwelt in Jerusalem to give the portion of the priests and the Levites , that they might be encouraged in the law of the Lord .
5. 왕의 명령이 내리자 곧 이스라엘 자손이 곡식과 포도주와 기름과 꿀과 밭의 모든 소산의 처음 것을 풍성히 드렸고 또 모든 것의 십일조를 많이 가져왔으며
And as soon as the commandment came abroad , the children of Israel brought in abundance the firstfruits of corn , wine , and oil , and honey , and of all the increase of the field ; and the tithe of all things brought they in abundantly .
6. 유다 여러 성읍에 거한 이스라엘과 유다 자손도 소와 양의 십일조를 가져왔고 또 그 하나님 여호와께 구별하여 드릴 성물의 십일조를 가져왔으며 그것을 쌓아 더미를 이루었는데
And concerning the children of Israel and Judah , that dwelt in the cities of Judah , they also brought in the tithe of oxen and sheep , and the tithe of holy things which were consecrated unto the Lord their God , and laid them by heaps .
7. 삼월에 쌓기를 시작하여 칠월에 마친지라
In the third month they began to lay the foundation of the heaps , and finished them in the seventh month .
8. 히스기야와 방백들이 와서 더미를 보고 여호와를 송축하고 그 백성 이스라엘을 위하여 축복하니라
And when Hezekiah and the princes came and saw the heaps , they blessed the Lord , and his people Israel .
9. 히스기야가 그 더미에 대하여 제사장들과 레위 사람들에게 물으니
Then Hezekiah questioned with the priests and the Levites concerning the heaps .
10. 사독의 족속 대제사장 아사랴가 대답하여 가로되 백성이 예물을 여호와의 전에 드리기 시작함으로부터 우리가 족하게 먹었으나 남은 것이 많으니 이는 여호와께서 그 백성에게 복을 주셨음이라 그 남은 것이 이렇게 많이 쌓였나이다
And Azariah the chief priest of the house of Zadok answered him, and said , Since the people began to bring the offerings into the house of the Lord , we have had enough to eat , and have left plenty : for the Lord hath blessed his people ; and that which is left is this great store .
11. 그 때에 히스기야가 명하여 여호와의 전 안에 방을 예비하라 한고로 드디어 예비하고
Then Hezekiah commanded to prepare chambers in the house of the Lord ; and they prepared them,
12. 성심으로 그 예물과 십일조와 구별한 물건을 갖다 두고 레위 사람 고나냐는 그 일을 주관하고 그 아우 시므이는 버금이 되며
And brought in the offerings and the tithes and the dedicated things faithfully : over which Cononiah the Levite was ruler , and Shimei his brother was the next .
13. 여히엘과 아사시야와 나핫과 아사헬과 여리못과 요사밧과 엘리엘과 이스마가와 마핫과 브나야는 고나냐와 그 아우 시므이의 수하에서 보살피는 자가 되니 이는 히스기야 왕과 하나님의 전을 관리하는 아사랴의 명한 바며
And Jehiel , and Azaziah , and Nahath , and Asahel , and Jerimoth , and Jozabad , and Eliel , and Ismachiah , and Mahath , and Benaiah , were overseers under the hand of Cononiah and Shimei his brother , at the commandment of Hezekiah the king , and Azariah the ruler of the house of God .
14. 동문지기 레위 사람 임나의 아들 고레는 즐거이 하나님께 드리는 예물을 맡아 여호와께 드리는 것과 모든 지성물을 나눠 주며
And Kore the son of Imnah the Levite , the porter toward the east , was over the freewill offerings of God , to distribute the oblations of the Lord , and the most holy things .
15. 그 수하의 에덴과 미냐민과 예수아와 스마야와 아마랴와 스가냐는 제사장의 성읍들에 있어서 직임을 맡아 그 형제에게 반차대로 무론대소하고 나눠 주되
And next him were Eden , and Miniamin , and Jeshua , and Shemaiah , Amariah , and Shecaniah , in the cities of the priests , in their set office , to give to their brethren by courses , as well to the great as to the small :
16. 삼 세 이상으로 족보에 기록된 남자 외에 날마다 여호와의 전에 들어가서 그 반차대로 직임에 수종드는 자들에게 다 나눠 주며
Beside their genealogy of males , from three years old and upward , even unto every one that entereth into the house of the Lord , his daily portion for their service in their charges according to their courses ;

Both to the genealogy of the priests by the house of their fathers , and the Levites from twenty years old and upward , in their charges by their courses ;
18. 또 그 족보에 기록된 온 회중의 어린 아이와 아내와 자녀들에게 나눠 주었으니 이 회중은 성결하고 충실히 그 직분을 다하는 자며
And to the genealogy of all their little ones , their wives , and their sons , and their daughters , through all the congregation : for in their set office they sanctified themselves in holiness :
19. 각 성읍에서 녹명된 사람이 있어 성읍 가까운 들에 거한 아론 자손 제사장들에게도 나눠 주되 제사장들의 모든 남자와 족보에 기록된 레위 사람들에게 나눠 주었더라
Also of the sons of Aaron the priests , which were in the fields of the suburbs of their cities , in every several city , the men that were expressed by name , to give portions to all the males among the priests , and to all that were reckoned by genealogies among the Levites .

【대하31:1 JFB】대하31:1-10. The People Forward in Destroying Idolatry.
1. all Israel … present went out to the cities of Judah—The solemnities of this paschal season left a deep and salutary impression on the minds of the assembled worshippers; attachment to the ancient institutions of their country was extensively revived; ardor in the service of God animated every bosom; and under the impulse of the devout feelings inspired by the occasion, they took measures at the close of the passover for extirpating idolatrous statues and altars out of every city, as at the beginning of the festival they had done in Jerusalem.
Judah and Benjamin—denote the southern kingdom.
Ephraim also and Manasseh—refer to the northern kingdom. This unsparing demolition of the monuments of idolatry would receive all encouragement from the king and public authorities of the former; and the force of the popular movement was sufficient to effect the same results among the tribes of Israel, whatever opposition the power of Hoshea or the invectives of some profane brethren might have made. Thus the reign of idolatry being completely overthrown and the pure worship of God re-established throughout the land, the people returned every one to his own home, in the confident expectation that, through the divine blessing, they would enjoy a happy future of national peace and prosperity.
【대하31:1 CWC】[JEHORAM TO HEZEKIAH]
1. Jehoram, c. 21.
Jehoshaphat followed Rehoboam's example in arranging for his sons (v. 3), but without the hoped-for result (v. 4). Such a brother as Jehoram proved might be expected to act in his kingly capacity as verses five to seven testify. "Elijah" (v. 12) may be mistaken of the transcribers for "Elisha," as the former died earlier (2 Kings 2); unless we take the view in the margin that this was a "writing" he left behind him. For the fulfillment of this "writing" read the rest of the chapter. We had a much fuller account of this reign in 2 Kings.
2. Ahaziah, c. 22.
This king is called "Jehoahaz" in the preceding chapter (v. 17). The peculiarity in the figures {22:2) was noticed in 왕하8:26, and the fact that his mother was the grand-daughter of Omri (v. 2). Note her influence (v. 3) like that of the mother of what other king recently considered?
In the story of verses five to nine, it is of interest to know that archaeological research has found the names of Hazael and Jehu on the Assyrian sculptures.
Athaliah's motive (v. 10) may have been inspired partly by anger at the destruction of her own house of Ahab, partly by the necessity of self-defense against Jehu, and partly by pride and ambition, since if any of the young princes became king his mother would supersede her in power and dignity.
Verse 12 means that the priests and their families, some of them at least, were privileged to dwell in the buildings in the outer wall of the temple.
3. Joash, cc. 23, 24.
"Chief of the fathers of Israel" (23:2), means Judah and Benjamin only, the name usually employed in this book for all that remained of Israel. 2 Chronicles 24: 15-22 has no parallel in Kings. It mentions the honor shown Jehoiada. Burial in cities, except Jerusalem, was prohibited, and in that case only allowed to kings. What request did the princes make to the king after the death of the faithful priest (v. 17)? Does the next verse indicate its character? And was the king himself guilty (v. 21)? Compare 마23:29-35. In this last passage Christ speaks of the slain prophet as the son of Barachias instead of Jehoiada, but possibly he was the latter's grandson. In his death the prophet said: "The Lord shall see and require" (v. 22), and for the fulfillment of the warning read the chapter to the end.
4. Amaziah, c. 25.
This history is divided into three parts: (1) the general account of the reign, and its spirit, especially at the beginning (vv. 1-4); (2) the conquest of the Edomites (vv, 5-13); (3) the idolatry of the king and its punishment at the hands of Israel (vv. 14-28). The second of these events is given with detail not found in the earlier record, and is valuable for the reply of God's servant to the king (v. 9), the lesson of which should not be disregarded. The third event also contains new matter (vv. 14-16), which explains why the calamity of the following verses was permitted.
5. Uzziah, c. 26.
Two periods suggest themselves in this case, early obedience and prosperity (vv. 1-15), and then pride and punishment (vv. 16-23). A comparison of the record of the first period with 2 Kings 14 and 15 shows new matter illustrating Uzziah's prosperity, who is there called "Azariah." This latter name is that of the Assyrian inscriptions also. Do not let verse five escape. "He sought God in the days of Zechariah, who had understanding in the visions of God." How valuable the prophets in the history of God's people, and especially those who understand the visions of God! There is a difference in prophets. Some understand what others do not. How necessary, therefore, that the Scripture interpreter should fear the Lord that he may possess his secrets.
Uzziah desired to exercise regal and sacerdotal functions at the same time, as in the case of pagan kings and emperors, but which was contrary to the divine law (Ex, 30, Num. 18). For the sin, compare 1 Samuel 13, and the punishment, Numbers 12, 2 Kings 5.
6. Jotham and Ahaz, cc. 27, 28.
Of Jotham's reign little need be said except to call attention to the lesson in verse six. The story of Ahaz is divided into four parts: (1) his general character and reign (vv. 1-5); (2) the invasions by Syria and Israel (vv. 6-15); (3) the alliance with Assyria (vv. 16-21); (4) the summary (vv. 22-27).
There is much that is new as compared with Kings, but the prophetic intercession for Judah with their brethren of Israel is particularly interesting (vv. 9-15). Was it their power, or God's judicial sentence that caused Israel to be victorious (v. 9)? How had they abused their opportunity? What should make them cautious and merciful (v. 10)? Verses 12-15 accord with the parable of the Good Samaritan (Luke 10), and Christ may have drawn upon this episode.
Ahaz's alliance with Assyria is attested by the Assyrian monuments. In the summary of the close of his reign, what language (v. 24) indicates the suspension of the worship of God in his time?
7. Hezekiah, cc. 29-32.
After the beginning of Hezekiah's history, we have, in chapter 29, the cleansing and consecration of the temple. In 30, the great passover. In 31, the religious reforms following. In 32, Sennacherib's expedition, and Hezekiah's sickness and the close of the reign. In Kings the military and political side of the reign is given more fully, but not the inner religious and theocratic side, as we see by comparing chapters 29-31 with the introductory verses of 2 Kings 18.
Noting a few outstanding points, "all the uncleanness" (29:16) means probably the sacrificial vessels formerly employed in idolatry, and possibly the remains of idolatrous offerings. "Ye have filled your hand unto the Lord" (v. 31 margin), means they had consecrated themselves to God (출28:41) after offering the expiatory sacrifices which preceded such consecration. Keep in mind that God accepts nothing from us as either gift or service until He accepts us. And we can be accepted only on the ground of the expiatory sacrifice of Christ. Note the last word of this chapter in the light of its context. That is the way a revival comes. O, that God would now surprise us with one!
Why could they not keep the passover in the appointed first month (30:2-4)? Was a change ever permissible (민9:6-13)? Note the breadth of the invitation (vv. 5-9), and the reception it met from Israel (vv. 10, 11). See the difficulty in the case of Judah and the cause of it (v. 12). "Healed the people" (v. 20) means forgave their guilt. "That they might be encouraged (steadfast) in the law of the Lord" (31:4), means that they might live care-free while performing their official duties.
Note that Hezekiah was a man of prayer and faith, who did not neglect means (32:1-8). To understand "he repaid not, etc.," (v. 25), compare 왕하20:12, etc. How disappointing this is in so good a man, and what a lesson it teaches as to the need of prayer and watchfulness to the end of our lives (v. 31).
【대하31:1 MHCC】Hezekiah destroys idolatry.
—After the passover, the people of Israel applied with vigour to destroy the monuments of idolatry. Public ordinances should stir us up to cleanse our hearts, our houses, and shops, from the filth of sin, and the idolatry of covetousness, and to excite others to do the same. The after-improvement of solemn ordinances, is of the greatest importance to personal, family, and public religion. When they had tasted the sweetness of God's ordinance in the late passover, they were free in maintaining the temple service. Those who enjoy the benefit of a settled ministry, will not grudge the expense of it. In all that Hezekiah attempted in God's service, he was earnest and single in his aim and dependence, and was prospered accordingly. Whether we have few or many talents intrusted to us, may we thus seek to improve them, and encourage others to do the same. What is undertaken with a sincere regard to the glory of God, will succeed to our own honour and comfort at last.
【대하31:2 JFB】2-5. Hezekiah appointed the courses of the priests, &c.—The king now turned his attention to provide for the orderly performance of the temple-worship—arranging the priests and Levites in their courses, assigning to every one his proper place and functions—and issuing edicts for the regular payment of those dues from which the revenues of the sanctuary were derived. To set a proper example to his subjects, his own proportion was announced in the first instance, for to the king it belonged, out of his privy purse, to defray the expenses of the altar, both stated and occasional (민28:3, 4, 9, 11, 19); and in making this contribution from his own means, Hezekiah followed the course which David and Solomon had taken before him (see 대하8:14; 왕상9:25). Afterwards he reappointed the people's dues to the temple; and from its being necessary to issue a royal mandate in reference to this matter, it appears that the sacred tribute had been either totally neglected, or (as the idolatrous princes were known to appropriate it to their own purposes) the people had in many cases refused or evaded the duty. But with the improved state of public feeling, Hezekiah's commandment was readily obeyed, and contributions of first-fruits and tithes were poured in with great liberality from all parts of Judah, as well as from Israel. The first-fruits, even of some articles of produce that were unfit for sacrifice (레2:11), such as honey (Margin, "dates"), were appropriated to the priests (민18:12, 13; 신18:4). The tithes (레27:31) were intended for the support of the whole Levitical tribe (민18:8, 20, 24).
【대하31:6 JFB】6, 7. and laid them by heaps—The contributions began to be sent in shortly after the celebration of the passover, which had taken place in the middle of the second month. Some time would elapse before the king's order reached all parts of the kingdom. The wheat harvest occurred in the third month, so that the sheaves of that grain, being presented before any other, formed "the foundation," an under-layer in the corn stores of the temple. The first-fruits of their land produce which were successively sent in all the summer till the close of the fruit and vintage season, that is, the seventh month, continued to raise heap upon heap.
【대하31:9 JFB】9. Hezekiah questioned with the priests and the Levites concerning the heaps—The object of his enquiries was to ascertain whether the supplies afforded the prospect of a sufficient maintenance for the members of the sacred order.
【대하31:10 JFB】10. Azariah … answered … we have had enough—This is probably the person mentioned (대하26:17), and his reply was to the following purport: There has been an abundant harvest, and a corresponding plenty in the incoming of first-fruits and tithes; the people have testified their gratitude to Him who has crowned the year with His goodness by their liberality towards His servants.
【대하31:11 JFB】대하31:11-19. Hezekiah Appoints Officers to Dispose of the Tithes.
11-18. Hezekiah commanded to prepare chambers in the house of the Lord—storehouses, granaries, or cellars; either the old ones, which had been allowed through neglect to fall into decay, were to be repaired, or additional ones built. Private individuals brought their own first-fruits to the temple; but the tithes were levied by the Levites, who kept a faithful account of them in their several places of abode and transmitted the allotted proportion to the priests. Officers were appointed to distribute equal rations to all in the cities of the priests who, from age or other reasons, could not repair to the temple. With the exception of children under three years of age—an exception made probably from their being considered too young to receive solid food—lists were kept of the number and age of every male; of priests according to their fathers' house, and Levites from twenty years (see 민4:3; 28:24; 대상23:24). But, besides, provision was also made for their wives, daughters, and servants.
【대하31:18 JFB】18. for in their set office they sanctified themselves—This is the reason assigned for providing for the wives and children out of the revenues of the sanctuary, that priests, withdrawing from those secular pursuits by which they might have maintained their households, devoted themselves entirely to the functions of the ministry.
【대하31:20 JFB】대하31:20, 21. His Sincerity of Heart.
20. Hezekiah … wrought that which was good and right—He displayed the qualities of a constitutional king, in restoring and upholding the ancient institutions of the kingdom; while his zealous and persevering efforts to promote the cause of true religion and the best interests of his subjects entitled him to be ranked with the most illustrious of his predecessors (왕하18:15).
