G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - 2 Chronicles 31:1-21

The observance of the feast was followed by reorganization of the nation. The remnant gathered from Israel became the pioneers in destroying all that remained of idolatry throughout the cities of Judah, and also in Ephraim and Manasseh. The king set in order the courses of the priests and Levites for the service, and rearranged the offerings according to law. He called for the payment of the tithe, and the response seems to have been widespread and generous. All this is told in general terms... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - 2 Chronicles 31:1-21

2 Chronicles 29:1 to 2 Chronicles 32:33 .

Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - 2 Chronicles 31:1-21

Chapter 31Now when all this was finished, all of Israel and those that were present went out to the cities of Judah, and they broke the images in pieces, they cut down the groves, they threw down the high places, the altars from Judah, Benjamin, in Ephraim and in Manasseh, until they had utterly destroyed them all. Then all the children of Israel returned, every man to his possession, into their own cities ( 2 Chronicles 31:1 ).So it was a spiritual revival, spiritual movement. As these guys... read more
