Analysis

This chapter can be divided into three sections:Шаблон:Sfn

  1. the Passover feast, which was celebrated after Josiah's reforms (verses 1–19)
  2. Josiah's death (verses 20–24)
  3. the concluding remark on his reign (verses 25–27)Шаблон:Sfn

Шаблон:AnchorJosiah Restores the Passover (35:1–19)

Unlike the hasty celebration in Hezekiah's time, the liturgy of Passover feast in Josiah's 18th year of reign is performed meticulously on the appointed day in Jerusalem (verse 1), referring to Шаблон:Bibleverse and Шаблон:Bibleverse, including the involvement of the Levites and musicians in the procedures.Шаблон:Sfn

Verse 1

Now Josiah kept a Passover to the LORD in Jerusalem, and they slaughtered the Passover lambs on the fourteenth day of the first month.[2]

Verse 3

Then he said to the Levites who taught all Israel, who were holy to the LORD: “Put the holy ark in the house which Solomon the son of David, king of Israel, built. It shall no longer be a burden on your shoulders. Now serve the LORD your God and His people Israel.[5]
  • "Put the holy ark in the house": this could indicate that the ark may have been removed from the temple during Manasseh's reign.Шаблон:Sfn

Шаблон:AnchorJosiah's death (35:20–27)

The report in this section has been regarded by some commentaries as historically more reliable and with clearer explanation about the event than that in the Books of Kings.Шаблон:Sfn The description of Josiah's armor, his wounding, and his order to be taken to Jerusalem is quite similar to that of Ahab (Шаблон:Bibleverse, 34).Шаблон:Sfn Although the passage and the Talmud attribute the lamentations to Jeremiah, Mathys suggests that Zechariah 12:9–14 may be the one referred in verses 24b–25, as it seems to refer to Josiah's death.Шаблон:Sfn

Verse 20

After all this, when Josiah had prepared the temple, Necho king of Egypt came up to fight against Carchemish by the Euphrates; and Josiah went out against him.[6]

The reference to Carchemish on the Euphrates (verse 20) uses similar wording as in Jeremiah 46:2.Шаблон:Sfn The Battle of Carchemish was eventually fought in 605 BCE where the Babylonian and Median army led by Nebuchadnezzar II destroyed the combined Egyptian and Assyrian forces, ending the existence of the Assyrian empire and eliminating Egypt's significant role in the Ancient Near East since that time.[7]
