Pulpit Commentary

Pulpit CommentaryVerse 3. - At that time. The words seem like a reminiscence of the "at that day," twice occurring in ver. 6 of Numbers 9. But anyway the meaning is plain "at the appointed season."

Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(3) At that time.--The time when the Temple had just been reopened (2Chronicles 29:8), in the first month of Hezekiah's first year. The Purification of the Temple was not completed until the 16th of Nisan (2Chronicles 29:17); but perhaps the Passover would have been held, had not the hindrances here mentioned prevented it. (See 2Chronicles 29:34).Sufficiently.--L?madday. Literally, unto what was enough (l?-mah-day), an expression only met with here. (Comp. a similar formation, 1Chronicles 15:13.) The meaning is that a sufficient number of priests had not observed the legal ceremonies of self-purification in time to hold Passover in Nisan.
