Context of 2 Chronicles 30:11

Nevertheless some from Asher, Manasseh, and Zebulun humbled themselves and came to Jerusalem. 12Also the hand of God was on Judah to give them singleness of heart to obey the command of the king and the leaders, at the word of the Lord. 13Now many people, a very great assembly, gathered at Jerusalem to keep the Feast of Unleavened Bread in the second month.
