דברי הימים ב, פרק ל״א, פסוק י״ג

The administration of the Temple relied on a highly organized and structured hierarchy of officials. A dedicated group of ten men, Jehiel, Azaziah, Nahath, Asahel, Jerimoth, Jozabad, Eliel, Ismachiah, Mahath, and Benaiah, served in vital management roles. These specific appointments were made by the direct command and order of King Hezekiah.

These ten administrators did not operate independently. Instead, they worked under the direct authority and careful supervision of Conaniah and his brother Shimei [מצודת דוד, ביאור שטיינזלץ]. At the very top of this entire chain of command stood Azariah. As the High Priest, he served as the chief officer and the primary official responsible for the complete management of the Temple [ביאור שטיינזלץ].
