Many scorned the call but multitudes did attend. The law was studied with great care that the ritual might be exactly observed. â€" Confessions of sin were simultaneous with the offering of sacrifices. Worship was the joy of the hour, and when the seven days prescribed for theâ€" Passover had been completed, the king and people were so zealous in the declarations of their new obedience to Jehovah that a second period of seven days was observed with added joy ard â€"â€"benefit. â€"As the people returned to their homes and daily life they had a ‘personal consciousness of the meaning in our â€"Golden Text: "Jehovah your God is gracious and merciful." sas Thus king Hezekiah led his people back to God.

Samuel D. Price, D.D. It is bad enough for individuals to drift into wickedness, but the general situation is far worse when the ruler of a nation actually promotes plans for wrong doing. This was the case in Judah ‘Ed'er king Ahaz. The worship of Jehovah was spurned And the ple were led into idoltry, with the immoral conditions that attended such devotion. Isaiah‘s entreaties to turn to and trust in God had been ridiculed and the people were under heavy tribute to the king of Assyria. Meanwhile the Northern Kingdom, Israel, had about run its course and Assyrian captivity resulted. * Hezekiah was the good son of a base father.
