Gill's Notes on the Bible

He in the first year of his reign, in the first month,.... And, as appears from 2 Chronicles 29:17, on the first day of the month:

opened the doors of the house of the Lord; which his father had shut, 2 Chronicles 28:24

and repaired them; or strengthened them, the hinges, and other parts of them, being loosened and weakened; and ornamented them by overlaying them with gold, the plates of which very probably his father had taken off; for, certain it is, Hezekiah overlaid them, and very probably at this time, see 2 Kings 18:16.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

By “the first month” is meant (compare 2 Chronicles 30:2-3) the month of Nisan, the first of the Jewish sacred year, not necessarily the first month of Hezekiah’s reign.
