2 Kings 12

King Joash (Yo'ash), under Jehoiada's guidance, orders the repair of YHWH's temple using dedicated funds, though initially delayed by corrupt priests; later, after Jehoiada's death, Joash turns to idolatry and Hazael king of Aram plunders Jerusalem despite Joash paying tribute from temple treasures.[4]
