The Passover Observed Again

35 Then Josiah ^(A)celebrated the Passover to the Lord in Jerusalem, and ^(B)they slaughtered the Passover animals on the fourteenth day of the first month. ² He set the priests in their offices and ^(C)encouraged them in the service of the house of the Lord. ³ He also said to ^(D)the Levites who taught all Israel and who were holy to the Lord, “Put the holy ark in the house which Solomon the son of David king of Israel built; ^(E)it will be a burden on your shoulders no longer. Now serve the Lord your God and His people Israel.
