EXPOSITORY (ENGLISH BIBLE)
THE PASSOVER AT JERUSALEM (2Chronicles 30:13-22).

(13) Much people.—A very great congregation—a congregation in great multitude (lārôb mĕ’ōd). (See on 2Chronicles 30:5.)

30:13-20 The great thing needful in attendance upon God in solemn ordinances, is, that we make heart-work of it; all is nothing without this. Where this sincerity and fixedness of heart are, there may yet be many things short of the purification of the sanctuary. These defects need pardoning, healing grace; for omissions in duty are sins, as well as omissions of duty. If God should deal with us in strict justice, even as to the very best of our doings, we should be undone. The way to obtain pardon, is to seek it of God by prayer; it must be gotten by petition through the blood of Christ. Yet every defect is sin, and needs forgiveness; and should be matter to humble, but not to discourage us, though nothing can make up for the want of a heart prepared to seek the Lord.Compare 2 Chronicles 30:18. Hence, five of the ten tribes certainly sent representatives. Two - Reuben and Gad - were in captivity. One - Dan - was absorbed into Judah. Simeon and Naphtali, which alone remained, seem to have been more than ordinarily idolatrous 2 Chronicles 34:6. 2Ch 30:13-27. The Assembly Destroys the Altars of Idolatry. No text from Poole on this verse.

And there assembled at Jerusalem much people,.... Out of the several tribes:

to keep the feast of unleavened bread: the passover, which was eaten with unleavened bread:

in the second month: the month Ijar:

a very great congregation; such as had not been seen on such an occasion for many years.

And there assembled at Jerusalem much people to keep the feast of unleavened bread in the second month, a very great congregation.
EXEGETICAL (ORIGINAL LANGUAGES)
13–27 (not in 2 Kin.). Hezekiah’s Great Passover

13. the feast of unleavened bread] In the “Passover” were united two separate “feasts,” (1) the eating of the lamb on the fourteenth of Nisan, (2) the eating of unleavened bread from the fourteenth to the twenty-first of Nisan. The combined Feast was sometimes called “the Passover” and sometimes (as here) “the feast of unleavened bread”; cp. Exodus 12:1-14; Exodus 12:17-20, and note that the intervening verses, 15, 16, bind the two feasts into one celebration.

Verse 13. - This verse purports to say that the total, at any rate, of the attendance on the Passover was very large. 2 Chronicles 30:13The celebration of the passover. - 2 Chronicles 30:13. The assembly of the people at Jerusalem to celebrate the feast became a great congregation.
