QUESTIONS ON RASHI

Rashi writes that the [half-]Shekalim given for Korbanos Tzibur were used for Bedek ha'Bayis. From what money did they offer Korbanos Tzibur that year?

1.

Radak: During the reign of Asalyah, people's hearts and Avodah were for the Ba'al. "They brought Olas Tamid all the days of Yehoyada" (Divrei ha'Yamim II, 24:14) implies that beforehand, they were not offering it (and hence not giving Shekalim for it). This is why Yo'ash needed to announce that they must bring Shekalim! The virtuous ones repented with all their hearts, and brought also what they should have brought in previous years 1 , so what was collected for this year sufficed for both [Bedek ha'Bayis and Korbanos Tzibur].

Malbim (7): They had given in previous years, but Asalyah used the money for Ba'alim, so it is as if they did not give. Yo'ash said that they should give now to compensate for previous years' money that was used improperly.
