Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

2 Chronicles 30:10-12

_ _ the posts passed from city to city — It is not surprising that after so long a discontinuance of the sacred festival, this attempt to revive it should, in some quarters, have excited ridicule and opposition. Accordingly, among the tribes of Ephraim, Manasseh, and Zebulun, Hezekiah’s messengers met with open insults and ill usage. Many, however, in these very districts, as well as throughout the kingdom of the ten tribes, generally complied with the invitation; while, in the kingdom of Judah, there was one unanimous feeling of high expectation and pious delight. The concourse that repaired to Jerusalem on the occasion was very great, and the occasion was ever after regarded as one of the greatest Passovers that had ever been celebrated.

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on 2 Chronicles 30:1-12.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

2 Chronicles 30:10

They — The generality of the ten tribes; who by long want of meat had now lost their appetite to God's ordinances, for which they paid dear. For about six years after their refusal of this offer of grace they were all carried away captive, 2 Kings 18:1, 2 Kings 18:10.

Geneva Bible Translation Notes

2 Chronicles 30:10

So the posts passed from city to city through the country of Ephraim and Manasseh even unto Zebulun: but they (h) laughed them to scorn, and mocked them.

(h) Though the wicked mock the servants of God, by whom he calls them to repentance, as in (Genesis 19:14), yet the word does not cease to ripen in the hearts of God's elect.
