the burnt offerings were abundant

on 2 Chronicles 29:35-36

Verse 35 closes the account of the day. Verse 36 gives two causes for the joy, “what God had prepared for the people” and that “everything had been accomplished so quickly”. Wesley sets the speed of the change beside a people who had followed Ahaz's idolatry only a generation before.

The duty being assigned by the law to the priests (Le 1:6), was construed by consuetudinary practice as an exclusion of all others not connected with the Aaronic family. for the Levites were more upright in heart to sanctify themselves than the priests--that is, displayed greater alacrity than the priests.
