Charles Ellicott Commentary 2 Chronicles 34:9

"And they came to Hilkiah the high priest, and delivered the money that was brought into the house of God, which the Levites, the keepers of the threshold, had gathered of the hand of Manasseh and Ephraim, and of all the remnant of Israel, and of all Judah and Benjamin, and of the inhabitants of Jerusalem." — 2 Chronicles 34:9 (ASV)

And when they came ... they delivered. — And they came ... and they gave. In 2 Kings 22:3–7, the contents of 2 Chronicles 34:9–12a are given in the form of the king’s instructions to Shaphan. Here we are told that those instructions were carried out. “They delivered (wayyittĕnû) is substituted for the difficult wĕyatt ç m of Kings (i.e., “and let him pay out”).

From the hand of Manasseh ... Benjamin. —Kings, “from the people.” Reuss oddly imagines that these words denote “a kind of organised collection throughout all Palestine,” and then proceeds to draw an inference unfavourable to the chronicler.

And they returned to Jerusalem. —This is the meaning of the Qri or Hebrew margin. The Hebrew text has, “and the inhabitants of Jerusalem,” which is correct.
