The propaganda machine continues apace.
In this episode, one of Judah's most virtuous kings, Hezekiah, reinstates the religious calendar and celebrates Passover. 
Then his son Manasseh, the nation's most wretched and evil ruler is given a moral makeover after and leaves the Bible both reformed and forgiven. 
The end destination of absolute destruction for Judah is still the same, but for those Jews who were the Books of Chronicles' first audience, it will have been an absolute cliffhanger.
