“And Jehoiada was buried with the kings in the City of David, because he had done what was good in Israel for God and His temple.”
2 Chronicles 24:16 (BSB)
Context Reading
14When they were finished, they brought the rest of the money to the king and Jehoiada, and with it were made articles for the house of the LORD — utensils for the service and for the burnt offerings, dishes, and other objects of gold and silver. Throughout the days of Jehoiada, burnt offerings were presented regularly in the house of the LORD. 15When Jehoiada was old and full of years, he died at the age of 130. 16And Jehoiada was buried with the kings in the City of David, because he had done what was good in Israel for God and His temple. 17After the death of Jehoiada, however, the officials of Judah came and paid homage to the king, and he listened to them. 18They abandoned the house of the LORD, the God of their fathers, and served the Asherah poles and idols. So wrath came upon Judah and Jerusalem for this guilt of theirs.
