2 Chronicles 15:10So they gathered themselves together at Jerusalem in the third month, in the fifteenth year of the reign of Asa.
The setting
Jerusalem, May/June 895 BC. The spring harvest is complete. Thousands of people stream through the city gates carrying their offerings. The city overflows with families who have traveled for days...
The emotion here: recording a historic moment of unity with attention to detail
The original word
shalishi (שלישי) — third month, corresponding to Sivan (May-June), the time of the wheat harvest
Why it matters
This was year fifteen of Asa's 41-year reign - he ruled longer than almost any other king of Judah
Read with care
What most readers miss in 2 Chronicles 15:10
The timing was strategic - third month was after harvest when people were free to travel and had offerings to bring
Common misconceptionThis seems like just a date notation, but the third month timing shows careful planning - they waited until after harvest when people could afford to travel and bring offerings
