2 Chronicles 34:22-24
Evangelical Heritage Version
22 Hilkiah and the men the king sent with him went to Huldah the prophetess, the wife of Shallum, the son of Tokhath, the son of Hasrah,[a] the keeper of the vestments.[b] She was living in Jerusalem in the Second District. They spoke to her concerning this matter.
23 She told them:
This is what the Lord, the God of Israel, says. Tell the man who sent you to me that 24 this is what the Lord says:
Look! I am bringing disaster on this place and on its inhabitants—all the curses written in the book which they read before the king of Judah—
Footnotes
- 2 Chronicles 34:22 Also called Harhas
- 2 Chronicles 34:22 The Hebrew means keeper of the garments. It does not specify whether these are priestly or royal garments. The parallel in 2 Kings 10:22 supports the former. It is most likely that the words keeper of the garments modify Shallum, but the office may have been hereditary and held by all three men.
