Hezekiah questioned with the priests, &c. How it came to pass that no more of their provision was spent, and that there remained yet such great heaps of it? The chief priest answered, Since the people began to bring the offerings Which they did from the beginning of the harvest, according to the custom; we have had enough to eat We have made use of all we had occasion for, for the maintenance of ourselves and families. And we have not hoarded these heaps for covetousness, but to show what plentiful provision God has made for us. For the Lord hath blessed his people In an extraordinary degree.
