Josiah Restores the Passover
21
And the king commanded all the people, 1"Keep the Passover to the LORD your God, 2as it is written in this Book of the Covenant.
22
3For no such Passover had been kept since the days of the judges who judged Israel, or during all the days of the kings of Israel or of the kings of Judah.
23
But in the eighteenth year of King Josiah this Passover was kept to the LORD in Jerusalem.
24
Moreover, Josiah put away 4the mediums and the necromancers and 5the household gods and 6the idols and all the abominations that were seen in the land of Judah and in Jerusalem, that he might establish 7the words of the law that were written in the book 8that Hilkiah the priest found in the house of the LORD.
25
9Before him there was no king like him, who turned to the LORD with all his heart and with all his soul and with all his might, according to all the Law of Moses, nor did any like him arise after him.
26
Still the LORD did not turn from the burning of his great wrath, by which his anger was kindled against Judah, 10because of all the provocations with which Manasseh had provoked him.
