35:4-6 The assignments of the priests and Levites mirrored the directions of David and Solomon (8:14-15; 1 Chr 24–26). The Passover animal was typically slaughtered by the offerer (Deut 16:5-6). However, because the offerers did not have time to purify themselves, Josiah continued the practice Hezekiah had begun of having the Levites slaughter the Passover animals (see 2 Chr 30:13-20). In Josiah’s time, the large number of participants also might have caused logistical problems.
