Introduction
Hezekiah's good reign, 2Chr 29:1, 2Chr 29:2. He opens and repairs the doors of the temple, 2Chr 29:3. He assembles and exhorts the priests and Levites, and proposes to renew the covenant with the Lord, 2Chr 29:4-11. They all sanctify themselves and cleanse the temple, 2Chr 29:12-17. They inform the king of their progress, 2Chr 29:18, 2Chr 29:19. He collects the rulers of the people: and they offer abundance of sin-offerings, and burnt-offerings, and worship the Lord, 2Chr 29:20-30. Every part of the Divine service is arranged, and Hezekiah and all the people rejoice, 2Chr 29:31-36.Adam Clarke, 1831 · public domain
