📚 Historical Context

This verse refers to King Hezekiah's decision to celebrate the Passover in the second month instead of the first, since there weren't enough priests who had purified themselves and the people hadn't gathered in Jerusalem yet. Hezekiah was leading a major religious revival in Judah, trying to restore proper worship after years of spiritual decline under previous kings.
