Charles Ellicott Commentary 2 Chronicles 24:4

"And it came to pass after this, that Joash was minded to restore the house of Jehovah." — 2 Chronicles 24:4 (ASV)

Was minded. —Literally, it became with the heart of Joash (2 Chronicles 6:8; 2 Chronicles 9:1; 1 Kings 8:18).

To repair. —See margin to 2 Chronicles 15:8. “To restore” is perhaps the best modern equivalent of the Hebrew term. The account of the restoration of the Temple is given here in different language from what we find in the parallel passage, which is not very clear.

The chronicler appears to have paraphrased the account he found in his authority. The Levites are not mentioned in Kings.
