Löydetty 427 Tulokset: Priests
Nevertheless, as late as the twenty-third year of the reign of King Joash, the priests had not made needed repairs on the temple. (2 Kings 12, 7)
Accordingly, King Joash summoned the priest Jehoiada and the other priests. "Why do you not repair the temple?" he asked them. "You must no longer take funds from your clients, but you shall turn them over for the repairs." (2 Kings 12, 8)
So the priests agreed that they would neither take funds from the people nor make the repairs on the temple. (2 Kings 12, 9)
The priest Jehoiada then took a chest, bored a hole in its lid, and set it beside the stele, on the right as one entered the temple of the LORD. The priests who guarded the entry would put into it all the funds that were brought to the temple of the LORD. (2 Kings 12, 10)
The funds from guilt-offerings and from sin-offerings, however, were not brought to the temple of the LORD; they belonged to the priests. (2 Kings 12, 17)
The king of Assyria gave the order, "Send back one of the priests whom I deported, to go there and settle, to teach them how to worship the God of the land." (2 Kings 17, 27)
So one of the priests who had been deported from Samaria returned and settled in Bethel, and taught them how to venerate the LORD. (2 Kings 17, 28)
They also venerated the LORD, choosing from their number priests for the high places, who officiated for them in the shrines on the high places. (2 Kings 17, 32)
He sent Eliakim, the master of the palace, Shebnah the scribe, and the elders of the priests, wrapped in sackcloth, to tell the prophet Isaiah, son of Amoz, (2 Kings 19, 2)
The king went up to the temple of the LORD with all the men of Judah and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem: priests, prophets, and all the people, small and great. He had the entire contents of the book of the covenant that had been found in the temple of the LORD, read out to them. (2 Kings 23, 2)
He also put an end to the pseudo-priests whom the kings of Judah had appointed to burn incense on the high places in the cities of Judah and in the vicinity of Jerusalem, as well as those who burned incense to Baal, to the sun, moon, and signs of the Zodiac, and to the whole host of heaven. (2 Kings 23, 5)
He brought in all the priests from the cities of Judah, and then defiled, from Geba to Beer-sheba, the high places where they had offered incense. He also tore down the high place of the satyrs, which was at the entrance of the Gate of Joshua, governor of the city, to the left as one enters the city gate. (2 Kings 23, 8)
