Ver. 22. Surely there was not holden such a passover,] viz., For concourse of people, and solemnity of the service. Tremellius rendereth it thus: Although there was not holden such a passover as this, viz., with such preparation, devotion, and reformation of religion; yet, 2Ki 23:26 "God turned not away from his wrath," &c., as being implacably bent and unchangeably resolved upon their utter ruin.
