2 Chronicles 35:17

Josiah Observes The Passover

¹⁶ So everything needed for the worship of the Lord was made ready that same day, for the keeping of the Passover and the offering of burned offerings on the altar of the Lord, as King Josiah had given orders. ¹⁷ And all the children of Israel who were present kept the Passover and the feast of unleavened bread at that time for seven days. ¹⁸ No Passover like it had been kept in Israel from the days of Samuel the prophet; and not one of the kings of Israel had ever kept a Passover like the one kept by Josiah and the priests and the Levites and all those of Judah and Israel who were present, and the people of Jerusalem.
