Contextual Overview
1 And, Hezekiah, began to reign when he was twenty-five years old, and, twenty-nine years, reigned he in Jerusalem, - and, the name of his mother, was Abijah, daughter of Zechariah. 2 And he did that which was right in the eyes of Yahweh, - according to all that, David his father, had done. 3 He, in the first year of his reign, in the first month, opened the doors of the house of Yahweh, and repaired them. 4 And he brought in the priests, and the Levites, - and gathered them together in the broadway on the east; 5 and said unto them, Hear me, O Levites! Now, hallow yourselves, and hallow the house of Yahweh, God of your fathers, and take forth the impure thing out of the holy place. 6 For our fathers have acted unfaithfully and done the thing that was wicked in the eyes of Yahweh our God, and have forsaken him,-and have turned round their faces from the habitation of Yahweh, and have offered their backs. 7 Moreover they have shut up the doors of the porch, and have quenched the lamps, and, incense, have they not burned,-and, ascending-sacrifice, have they not caused to go up in the holy place, unto the God of Israel. 8 Thus hath it come to pass, that, the wrath of Yahweh, hath been upon Judah and Jerusalem, - and he hath delivered them up as a terror and as an astonishment and as hissing, even as, ye, can see with your own eyes. 9 And lo! our fathers have fallen by the sword, and, our sons and our daughters and our wives, are in captivity for this. 10 Now, is it near my heart, to solemnise a covenant unto Yahweh, God of Israel, - that he may turn from him the glow of his anger.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible
The treatment of Hezekiah’s reign by the author of Chronicles is in marked contrast with that followed in the Book of Kings. The writer of Kings describes mainly civil affairs; the author of Chronicles gives a full account of Hezekiah’s religious reformation. 2 Chr. 29–31 contain matter, therefore, which is almost wholly new.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
CHAPTER XXIX
Hezekiah's good reign, 1, 2.
He opens and repairs the doors of the temple, 3.
He assembles and exhorts the priests and Levites, and proposes
to renew the covenant with the Lord, 4-11.
They all sanctify themselves and cleanse the temple, 12-17.
They inform the king of their progress, 18, 19.
He collects the rulers of the people: and they offer abundance
of sin-offerings, and burnt-offerings, and worship the Lord,
20-30.
Every part of the Divine service is arranged, and Hezekiah and
all the people rejoice, 31-36.
