• The ten tribes had in fact been carried away into captivity; some poor vine-gleanings remained in Israel. (“Hezekiah - The Passover and the Feast of Unleavened Bread: 2 Chronicles 30” by H.L. Rossier)
• It was the entire people's portion to be present for the celebration of the Passover, for the people were one and the Passover was offered for one people alone. The unity of the people of God no longer existed before the eyes of men and this truth had been completely buried for nearly 250 years. Hezekiah was the first since Solomon to understand that despite all appearance to the contrary this unity existed and that it was possible to realize it. (“Hezekiah - The Passover and the Feast of Unleavened Bread: 2 Chronicles 30” by H.L. Rossier)
