took counsel.
2 Chron. 30:2• 2And the king took counsel, and his princes, and the whole congregation in Jerusalem, to hold the passover in the second month. (2 Chron. 30:2)
to keep.They did not observe other seven days of unleavened bread, but offered sacrifices with praise and thanksgiving, and feasting, other seven days; and, as the people in general, and especially those who came out of the kingdom of Israel, would be unprepared for this additional expense, both Hezekiah and his princes liberally supplied them with cattle for sacrifices.
2 Chron. 7:9• 9And on the eighth day they held a solemn assembly; for they kept the dedication of the altar seven days, and the feast seven days. (2 Chron. 7:9)
;
1 Kings 8:65• 65And at that time Solomon held the feast, and all Israel with him, a great congregation, from the entrance of Hamath unto the torrent of Egypt, before Jehovah our God, seven days and seven days, fourteen days. (1 Kings 8:65)
• Judah and Israel's joy prompted them to prolong the Feast of Unleavened Bread, which they were celebrating, as we have seen, for twice seven days. There is no means more powerful for prolonging a life of practical holiness than joy in the Lord's presence, and on the other hand, nothing sustains this joy like a holy life, separated from all that the world loves and seeks. (“Hezekiah - The Passover and the Feast of Unleavened Bread: 2 Chronicles 30” by H.L. Rossier)
