2 Kings 12:13
"Howbeit there were not made for the house of the LORD bowls of silver, snuffers, basons, trumpets, any vessels of gold, or vessels of silver, of the money that was brought into the house of the LORD:"

Commentary

Gill's Exposition

Howbeit there were not made for the house of the Lord, bowls of silver,.... Either to hold the blood of the sacrifices, or the drink offerings of wine: snuffers; to trim

the lamps; or, as Jarchi and other writers, both Jewish and Christian, musical instruments: basins; vessels to sprinkle the blood with, as the word signifies: trumpets; silver ones, to call the assembly, blow over the sacrifices, &c. any vessels of gold, or vessels of silver; for any other use: these were not made of the money that was brought into the house of the Lord; yet, in Ch2 24:14 , it is said they were, which is to be reconciled thus; they did not make any of those things at first, until the house was repaired, and the charges of it defrayed; and then of what remained they made vessels for the house, which were wanting, that Athaliah had bestowed on Baalim, Ch2 24:7 .
