SEV Biblia, Chapter 35:1

¶ Y Josías hizo pascua al SEÑOR en Jerusalén, y sacrificaron la pascua a los catorce del mes primero.

John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 1. Moreover, Josiah kept a passover unto the Lord in Jerusalem , etc.] Where only it was to be kept: and they killed the passover on the fourteenth day of the first month ; the month Nisan, as the Targum, which was the exact time of killing the passover lamb, according to the law of Moses, ( Exodus 12:6), in the Vulgate Latin version of the Apocrypha in: ``And Josias held the feast of the passover in Jerusalem unto his Lord, and offered the passover the fourteenth day of the first month;” (1 Esdras 1:1) it is called the fourteenth moon of the first month; a phrase often used in ecclesiastical writers, when speaking of the time of the passover; and so we now call one of the days of the week “dies lunae”, Monday.

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 1-19 - The destruction Josiah made of idolatry, was more largely related in the book of Kings. His solemnizing the passover is related here. The Lord's supper resembles the passover more than any other of the Jewis festivals; and the due observance of that ordinance, is a proof of growing piety and devotion. God alone can truly make our hearts holy and prepare them for his holy services; but there are duties belongin to us, in doing which we obtain this blessing from the Lord.
