19. In the eighteenth year of thereign Josiah was this passover kept“It is said (2Ki22:3) that Josiah sent Shaphan to Hilkiah in the eighth month ofthat year.” If this statement rests upon an historical basis,all the events narrated here (at 2Ch34:8-35:19) must have happened in about the space of five monthsand a half. We should then have a proof that the eighteenth year ofJosiah’s reign was reckoned from the autumn (compare 2Ch29:3). “The eighth month” of the sacred year in theeighteenth year of his reign would be the second month of hiseighteenth year, and the first month of the new year would be theseventh month [BERTHEAU].

kept. The Septuagint Version adds here [with a colon after kept]: “
: after all these things that Josiah did in the house, who also burnt those who had familiar spirits, and the wizards, and the images, and the idols, and the sodomites, which were in the land of Judah and in Jerusalem, that lie might confirm the words of the law that were written in the book which Hilkiah the priest had found in the house of the LORD. There was no one like him before him. who turned to the LORD with all his heart, and all his soul, and all his strength, according to all the law of Moses, and after him there rose up none like him. Nevertheless the LORD turned not from the anger of His great wrath, wherewith the LORD was greatly angry against Judah, for all the provocations wherewith Manasseh provoked Him. And the LORD said: ‘I shall even remove Judah also from My presence, as I have removed Israel; and I have rejected the city which I chose, even Jerusalem, and the house of which I said, ‘My Name shall be there. ‘ ‘ “
