9 Et tulit Jojada pontifex gazophylacium unum, aperuitque foramen desuper, et posuit illud juxta altare ad dexteram ingredientium domum Domini, mittebantque in eo sacerdotes, qui custodiebant ostia, omnem pecuniam, quæ deferebatur ad templum Domini.


Commentary on this verse  

By Henry MacLagan

Verse 9. In which state of the man of the church, it is provided by the Lord, that the natural man shall acquire truths, even from selfish affections, if, at the same time, he be in the worship of the Lord interiorly from the will of good, and exteriorly from the acknowledgment that all truth is from the Lord by good.
