Footnotes
A careful jurisdictional boundary: the *'asham* (אָשָׁם, guilt offering) and *chata't* (חַטָּאת, sin offering) revenues remained the priests' lawful income per the Levitical code (Num. 18:9). Even in a moment of administrative reform that stripped priests of fund-management, their ordained entitlements are preserved. This verse signals that Jehoash's reform was not anti-priestly but structurally corrective — the system was fixed, not dismantled.
