2 Crônicas 35:13

According to the ordinance. — Êxodo 12:8.

Boasted with fire. — Cooked in the fire.

But the other holy offerings sod they... pans. — And the consecrated things they cooked in the pots, and in the caldrons, and in the pans. — “The consecrated things” are the oxen (2 Crônicas 29:33). Their flesh was boiled or fried, and handed with all due haste by the Levites to the laity.

The author tells us here not only what was done on the evening of the fourteenth Nisan, the Passover proper, but also during the seven following days of the Feast of Mazzoth, or Unleavened Bread. On the Passover evening only the paschal lambs and kids would be eaten; the oxen were slain as peace offerings during the subsequent festivities (Deuteronômio 16:1), and furnished forth the sacrificial meals.

And divided them speedily... the people. — And brought them quickly to all the sons of the people, so that the meat did not get cold. (Comp. Gênesis 41:14.) This little touch of realism calls up a picture. We see the whole busy scene, the different groups of the people scattered here and there about the sacred court, and the Levites bringing them their portions of the savoury meat.
