Matthew Poole and continuators on 2 Chronicles 24:6

6 And the king called for Jehojada the chief , and said unto him, Why hast thou not required of the Levites to bring in out of Judah and out of Jerusalem, the collection, according to the commandment of Moses the servant of the LORD, and of the congregation of Israel, for the tabernacle of witness?

It is observable, that he is not called the Chief Priest, or High Priest, but onely the Chief, or the Head, which he might be in many other respects, either by reason of his near relation to the Royal Family: or because he was the Chief of one of the 24 Families, or because he had been the chief man in the contriving and bringing about of this great change, and the General of the Forces employed about it. And the High Priest seems to be mentioned as a distinct person from Jehojadah here, 2 Kings 12. 9, 10 All which make it questionable, whether Jehojadah was the High-Priest or no.

Heb. the Collection of Moses, i. e. such an one as he commanded or made in the like case: of which see on v. 5. In like manner we read of the Sins of Manasseh, 2 Kings 24. 3. and of the Sin of Ieroboam frequently.
