2 Chronicles 30:1 meaning

An explanation of 2 Chronicles 30:1

Following the restoration of the temple and its worship practices, Hezekiah's heart turned toward reuniting the previously divided kingdom of Israel. In a significant move, he extended an invitation to all Israel and Judah, aimed at gathering the people to celebrate the Passover in Jerusalem, reinstituting a critical aspect of their covenant relationship with God. This invitation was not merely political but deeply spiritual—Hezekiah sought to revive dedication to Yahweh among those who had fallen into idolatry and a neglect of worship practices. His call came at a time when the northern tribes had largely turned away, exemplified by many mocking the messengers he sent.
