Bible Verse Review
from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge
took counsel: 2 Chronicles 30:2
to keep: They did not observe other seven days of unleavened bread, but offered sacrifices with praise and thanksgiving, and feasting, other seven days; and, as the people in general, and especially those who came out of the kingdom of Israel, would be unprepared for this additional expense, both Hezekiah and his princes liberally supplied them with cattle for sacrifices. 2 Chronicles 7:9, 1 Kings 8:65
Reciprocal: Deuteronomy 27:7 - rejoice Ezra 6:16 - with joy Nehemiah 8:13 - the second Psalms 42:4 - with the voice Ecclesiastes 9:7 - eat
Gill's Notes on the Bible
And the whole assembly took counsel to keep other seven days,.... They consulted among themselves, and with the king and his nobles about it, who all agreed to it:
and they kept other seven days with gladness; not altogether in the same manner they had kept the preceding seven days; they did not slay and eat passover lambs, nor did they eat unleavened bread, but offered peace offerings, and feasted upon them; and sung the praises of God, and attended to the instructions of the priests and Levites, being in a very agreeable frame of mind for religious exercises.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
To keep other seven days - This was a voluntary addition to the requirements of the Law - the fruit and sign of the abounding zeal which characterized the time. Hezekiah and the princes probably proposed it to the people, and presented them with sacrificial animals.
