2 Chronicles 35:16 Meaning and Commentary

2 Chronicles 35:16

So all the service of the Lord was prepared the same day
With every sacrifice, and for all sorts of persons:

to keep the passover, and to offer burnt offerings upon the altar of
the Lord;
which were required to be done on that day:

according to the commandment of King Josiah;
which was, that every thing be provided, prepared, and done, as the law required.

2 Chronicles 35:16 In-Context

14 After the people had eaten the holy meal, the Levites served themselves and the Aaronite priests - the priests were busy late into the night making the offerings at the Altar.

15 The Asaph singers were all in their places following the instructions of David, Asaph, Heman, and Jeduthun the king's seer. The security guards were on duty at each gate - the Levites also served them because they couldn't leave their posts.

16 Everything went without a hitch in the worship of God that day as they celebrated the Passover and the offering of the Whole-Burnt-Offering on the Altar of God. It went just as Josiah had ordered.

17 The Israelites celebrated the Passover, also known as the Feast of Unraised Bread, for seven days.

18 The Passover hadn't been celebrated like this since the days of Samuel the prophet. None of the kings had done it. But Josiah, the priests, the Levites, all Judah and Israel who were there that week, plus the citizens of Jerusalem - they did it.
