2 Chronicles 35:6 Meaning and Commentary

2 Chronicles 35:6

So kill the passover
In the manner, time, and place, and for the persons it should be killed:

and sanctify yourselves:
by washing themselves and garments, that they might be fit for this service:

and prepare your brethren;
prepare a lamb for your brethren, or instruct them how to perform their office that needed instruction:

that they may do according to the word of the Lord by the hand of
Moses;
celebrate the ordinance of the passover in all its rites, according to the law of Moses, at least in every rite in which they were more peculiarly concerned.

7 Josiah provided animals for the Passover offerings. He gave them for all of the people who were there. He gave a total of 30,000 sheep and goats and 3,000 head of cattle. He gave all of them from his own possessions.

8 His officials also gave freely. They gave to the people and the priests and Levites. Hilkiah, Zechariah and Jehiel were in charge of God's temple. They gave the priests 2,600 Passover lambs and 300 head of cattle.
