Joash Anointed King in Judah
8So the Levites and all Judah did everything that Jehoiada the priest had ordered. Each of them took his men—those coming on duty on the Sabbath and those going off duty—for Jehoiada the priest had not released any of the divisions. 9Then Jehoiada the priest gave to the commanders of hundreds the spears and the large and small shields of King David that were in the house of God. 10He stationed all the troops, with their weapons in hand, surrounding the king by the altar and the temple, from the south side to the north side of the temple.…

(9) Moreover.--And. This verse is essentially identical with 2Kings 11:10 : "And the priest delivered to the captains of hundreds the spear and the shields that had been king David's, which were in the house of Jehovah." The chronicler has added Jehoiada and the bucklers, and turned the spear into spears, rightly according to most critics.

Spears, and bucklers, and shields.--Each word has the article in the Hebrew.

That had been king David's.--Comp. 1Chronicles 18:7; 1Chronicles 18:11; also 1Samuel 22:10; 1Samuel 17:7. . . .

Verse 9. - Shields... King David's ... in the house of God. Some think these may have been the shields of gold that King David took from the servants of Hadadezer (2 Samuel 8:7, 11).
