Altar Bread Burnt Burnt-Offering Cleansed Entire Hezekiah Hezeki'ah House Offering Palace Purified Reported Setting Shewbread Show Showbread Table Temple Thereof Utensils Vessels Whole Within
2 Chronicles 29
1. Hezekiah's good reign.
3. He restores religion
5. He exhorts the Levites
12. They sanctify themselves, and cleanse the house of God
20. Hezekiah offers solemn sacrifices,
24. wherein the Levites are more forward than the priests














(18) They went in.--Heb., into the interior (p?nimah, "inner part" 2Chronicles 29:16) of the palace.

Hezekiah.--Hizkiyahu. So also in 2Chronicles 29:27; but in 2Chronicles 29:30, Yehizkiyahu. (See Note on 2Chronicles 29:1.)

The altar of burnt offering.--Which Ahaz appears to have superseded (2Kings 16:14-15), besides removing it from its legal position. . . .

Verse 18. - This and the following verse purport to say that, while all "filthiness" had been swept out and away to Kidron's dark waters, all that had been polluted of the proper furniture of the temple and its worship had now been cleansed and sanctified by those who had been entrusted with the work, and likewise that things misplaced and removed had been replaced, also after cleansing and sanctifying. This is the happy report that the priests bring now to Hezekiah (2 Chronicles 28:24 2Kings 16:14).
