Chasidut for Megillah 58:16

מיתיבי ר"ח אדר שחל להיות בשבת קורין בפרשת שקלים ומפטירין ביהוידע הכהן בשלמא למ"ד כי תשא היינו דמפטירין ביהוידע הכהן דדמי ליה דכתיב (מלכים ב יב, ה) כסף נפשות ערכו

This works for the one who says that “When you count” should be said, that is why they read the haftorah of Yehoyada the Priest because it is similar in subject, as it is written [there], “The money of the persons according to its value” (II Kings 12:5). But according to the one who says that “My sacrifice, my food” is there any similarity?
