2 Kings 23:21
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
The king commanded all the people, “Keep the Passover of the LORD your God, as it is written in this Book of the Covenant.”
In context
19 Just as Josiah had done at Bethel, so also in the cities of Samaria he removed all the shrines of the high places set up by the kings of Israel who had provoked the LORD to anger.
20 On the altars he slaughtered all the priests of the high places, and he burned human bones on them. Then he returned to Jerusalem.
21 The king commanded all the people, “Keep the Passover of the LORD your God, as it is written in this Book of the Covenant.”
22 No such Passover had been observed from the days of the judges who had governed Israel through all the days of the kings of Israel and Judah.
23 But in the eighteenth year of Josiah’s reign, this Passover was observed to the LORD in Jerusalem.
