2 Chronicles 31

After Hezekiah's Passover celebration, all Israel destroys idolatrous pillars, Asherah poles, high places, and altars throughout Judah, Benjamin, Ephraim, and Manasseh.[1][2] Hezekiah reinstates the divisions of priests and Levites for temple service and reestablishes the practice of tithing, to which the people respond abundantly, providing more than enough for the priests' and Levites' sustenance.[1][2]
