No décimo oitavo ano do seu reinado, havendo já purificado a terra e a casa, ele enviou Safã, filho de Azalias, Maaséias, o governador da cidade, e Joá, filho de Joacaz, o cronista, para repararem a casa do SENHOR seu Deus.
Rashi on II Chronicles
the recorder Wherever a scribe is mentioned, a recorder is mentioned in close proximity, for every king had a scribe to write everything that occurred in the kingdom, whether favorable or unfavorable, and he had a recorder sitting beside the scribe, to mention every incident, and the scribe would write according to what he told him.
