역대하 35:8 KRV

Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - 2 Chronicles 35:1-19

The destruction which Josiah made of idols and idolatry was more largely related in the Kings, but just mentioned here in the foregoing chapter (2 Chron. 34:33); but his solemnizing the passover, which was touched upon there (2 Kgs. 23:21), is very particularly related here. Many were the feasts of the Lord, appointed by the ceremonial law, but the passover was the chief. It began them all in the night wherein Israel came out of Egypt; it concluded them all in the night wherein Christ was... read more

And his princes gave willingly to the people, to the priests and the Levites ,.... Besides, to some other families, they gave also to poor priests and Levites, which the king's bounty did not extend to; and these princes were not secular, but ecclesiastical princes, as follows: Hilkiah, and Zechariah, and Jehiel, rulers of the house ; of the temple; Hilkiah was high priest, and the other two were chief priests, the one of the line of Eleazar, and the other of the line of Ithamar: ... read more

The great Passover of Josiah. I. GREAT IN RESPECT OF ITS CONFORMITY TO THE LAW . To suppose (De Wette, Thenius, and others) that never before had a Passover been observed in Israel or Judah since the days of Samuel ( 2 Chronicles 35:18 ; 1 Esdras 1:20, 21) or of the judges ( 2 Kings 23:22 ), is not only to extract an unwarrantable inference from the sacred text, but is contradicted by the fact that Hezekiah, a former King of Judah, celebrated a Passover in Jerusalem... read more

The service of the Lord. From this account of Josiah's great Passover we may learn— I. THAT RELIGIOUS LIFE INCLUDES A FEW GREAT OCCASIONS . The religious life of Israel included some special occasions, of which this was one. Provision was made in the Law for one event of surpassing solemnity in every year ( Leviticus 16:1-34 .). And the very checkered course the nation ran provided a few extraordinary scenes which were great and sacred opportunities. Thus is it with... read more

Unto the people, priests, and Levites For the use of any of the families of them, as need should be. For they supposed the thirty- thousand, which the king had given, were not sufficient for all the families. read more

The final reform (34:1-35:27)Another reform swept Judah during the reign of Josiah (34:1-33; see notes on 2 Kings 22:1-23:20). As with the reform of Hezekiah, the climax in the eyes of the Chronicler was a great Passover Feast in Jerusalem.After returning the ark to its rightful place in the temple, the priests and Levites prepared themselves for their duties. Josiah arranged them in divisions as Hezekiah had done earlier, so that the music, singing, sacrifices and other rituals could be... read more
