1. Josiah keeps a most solemn Passover
20. He provoking Pharaoh Neco, is slain at Megiddo
25. Lamentations for Josiah














(7-9) The king and the grandees present the victims. (Comp. 2Chronicles 30:24.)

(7) Josiah gave.--As in 2Chronicles 30:24, presented as a heave-offering.

To the people.--To the sons of the people; i.e., the laity.

Of the flock.--Literally, small cattle, to wit, lambs and sons of goats.

All for the passover offerings--i.e., the thirty thousand small cattle.

Three thousand bullocks.--For the peace-offerings and the sacrificial feasting (2Chronicles 35:13). . . .

Verse 7. - Lambs... kids... bullocks. The variety of sacrificial offerings is specifically noticed in our ver. 13. While kids ("Ye shall take it out from the sheep or from the goats," Exodus 12:5) as well as lambs answered for the Paschal feast, the bullocks served for "burnt" and "peace offerings" (Numbers 28:16-25).
