5 And as soon as the commandment came abroad, the children of Israel brought in abundance the firstfruits of corn, wine, and oil, and honey, and of all the increase of the field; and the tithe of all things brought they in abundantly.
6 And concerning the children of Israel and Judah, that dwelt in the cities of Judah, they also brought in the tithe of oxen and sheep, and the tithe of holy things which were consecrated unto the Lord their God, and laid them by heaps.
51/ Why did Hezekiah invite the people of the northern tribes of Israel to come to Jerusalem ?
Brinny,
By the time of Hezekiah the northern kingdom of Israel no longer existed. Samaria was now part of a huge Assyrian Empire.
Hezekiah invited the northern tribes to Jerusalem to eat the seven day Passover Feast.
After eating the Passover Feast many from the northern tribes of Israel returned to worshiping the one true God of Israel.
Many smashed their idols of Baal when they returned home, and cut down the groves to Baal.
