1 Esdras 1:22

22 In the eighteenth year of the reign of Josiah this passover was kept.

1 Esdras 1:22 In-Context

20 No passover like it had been kept in Israel since the times of the prophet Samuel;

21 none of the kings of Israel had kept such a passover as was kept by Josiah and the priests and Levites and the people of Judah and all of Israel who were living in Jerusalem.

22 In the eighteenth year of the reign of Josiah this passover was kept.

23 And the deeds of Josiah were upright in the sight of the Lord, for his heart was full of godliness.

24 In ancient times the events of his reign have been recorded—concerning those who sinned and acted wickedly toward the Lord beyond any other people or kingdom, and how they grieved the Lord deeply, so that the words of the Lord fell upon Israel.
