2 Chronicles 35:17 Meaning and Commentary

2 Chronicles 35:17

And the children of Israel that were present kept the passover
at that time
In its proper time, on the fourteenth day of Nisan:

and the feast of unleavened bread seven days;
the seven days following the passover, as the Lord by Moses appointed.

2 Chronicles 35:17 In-Context

15 The singers (Asaph's descendants) were in their places as David, Asaph, Heman, and the king's seer Jeduthun had commanded. The gatekeepers were stationed at each gate. They didn't need to leave their work, because their relatives, the Levites, prepared [animals] for them.

16 So everything was arranged that day for the worship of the LORD. The Passover was celebrated, and the burnt offerings were sacrificed on the LORD's altar as King Josiah had commanded.

17 The Israelites who were present celebrated the Passover at that time. They also celebrated the Festival of Unleavened Bread for seven days.

18 Never had a Passover like this been celebrated in Israel during the time of the prophet Samuel or the kings of Israel. They did not celebrate the Passover as Josiah celebrated it with priests, Levites, all of Judah, the people of Israel who could be found, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem.

19 In the eighteenth year of Josiah's reign, this Passover was celebrated.
