\v 21 Then the king commanded all the people, saying, "Keep the Passover to Yahweh your God, as it is written in this book of the covenant."

ISSUE: In the other three instances of "book of the Covenant" in the ULB, "Covenant" is capitalized.

SUGGESTED CHANGE:

Suggestion from SUN theological checker. (via email from Stacy Shawiak Nov 22, 2022)

Exodus 24:7: "book of the Covenant": The original ASV does not capitalize, so he suggests making "covenant" in the ULB lowercase.

Susan's note

Exo 24:7
\v 7 He took the book of the Covenant and read it aloud to the people. They said, "We will do all that Yahweh has spoken. We will be obedient."

2Ki 23:2
\v 2 Then the king went up to the house of Yahweh, and all the men of Judah and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem with him, and the priests, prophets, and all the people, from small to great. He then read in their hearing all the words of the book of the Covenant that had been found in the house of Yahweh.

2Ki 23:21
\v 21 Then the king commanded all the people, saying, "Keep the Passover to Yahweh your God, as it is written in this book of the covenant."

2Ch 34:30
\v 30 Then the king went up to the house of Yahweh, and all the men of Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and the priests, Levites, and all the people, from great to small. He then read in their hearing all the words of the book of the Covenant that had been found in the house of Yahweh.
