2 Chronicles 6:6
chosen Jerusalem .......... chosen <0977 03389> [But I have chosen Jerusalem.]
This clause is also not found in Kings. Jerusalem was expressly marked out, by the building of the temple, to be the centre of the worship of Israel; as Jehovah had before spoken by Moses: see the parallel passages.
chosen ........... chosen David <01732 0977> [chosen David.]
2 Chronicles 17:13
many supplies stored <04399 07227> [much business.]
2 Chronicles 21:5
Jehoram <03088> [A.M. 3112-3119. B.C. 892-885. Jehoram.]
"In consort, 2 Ki 8:17."
2 Chronicles 27:8
2 Chronicles 30:2
king <04428> [the king.]
second month <08145 02320> [in the second month.]
In Ijar, as they could not celebrate in Nisan, the 14th of which month was the proper time. But Hezekiah and his counsellors justly concluded, that the regulation of the 14th day of the second month, which had been made for individuals who were hindered from eating the passover at the appointed season, might in their present circumstances be extended to the people at large.
2 Chronicles 32:10

2 Chronicles 33:1
Manasseh <04519> [A.M. 3306-3361. B.C. 693-643. Manasseh.]
[Manasses. twelve.]
2 Chronicles 33:4

2 Chronicles 33:21
twenty-two years ........... two years <08141 08147> [A.M. 3361-3363. B.C. 643-641. two years.]
2 Chronicles 34:1
Josiah <02977> [A.M. 3363-3394. B.C. 641-610. Josiah.]
[Josias. eight years.]
2 Chronicles 35:1
Josiah <02977> [Josiah.]
The whole solemnity was performed with great exactness according to the law, and upon that account there was none like it since Samuel's time; for even in Hezekiah's passover there were several irregularities. Bp. Patrick observes, that in this also it exceeded the other passovers which preceding things had kept, that though Josiah was by no means so rich as David, or Solomon, or Jehoshaphat, yet he furnished the congregation with beasts for sacrifice, both paschal and eucharistical, at his own proper cost and charge, which was more than any king ever did before.
fourteenth <0702> [the fourteenth.]
Josiah's solemnization of the passover, which is merely alluded to at 2 Ki 23:21, is very particularly related her, while the destruction of idolatry is largely related in the Kings, and here only touched upon. The feasts of the Lord God, appointed by the ceremonial law, were very numerous; but the passover was the chief. It was the first which was solemnized in the night wherein Israel came out of Egypt, and ushered in those which were afterwards instituted: and it was the last great feast which was held in the night wherein Christ was betrayed, before the vail of the temple was rent in twain. Be means of this feast, both Josiah and Hezekiah revived religion in their day.
2 Chronicles 36:1-3
