The Returned Exiles Keep the Passover

The Returned Exiles Keep the Passover


19On the fourteenth day of the first month, the exiles kept the Passover. 20All the priests and Levites had purified themselves and were ceremonially clean.

And the Levites slaughtered the Passover lamb for all the exiles, for their priestly brothers, and for themselves. 21The Israelites who had returned from exile ate it, together with all who had separated themselves from the uncleanness of the peoples [fn] of the land to seek the LORD, the God of Israel.


22For seven days they kept the Feast of Unleavened Bread [fn] with joy, because the LORD had made them joyful and turned the heart of the king of Assyria toward them to strengthen their hands in the work on the house of the God of Israel.


6:21 Or nations

6:22 That is, the seven-day period after the Passover during which no leaven may be eaten; see Exodus 12:14–20.
