2 Chronicles 29:7
"Also they have shut up the doors of the porch, and put out the lamps, and have not burned incense nor offered burnt offerings in the holy place unto the God of Israel."

Commentary

Gill's Exposition

Also they have shut up the doors of the porch,.... So that there was no entering into the temple, Ch2 28:24 . and put out the lamps; for the priests

not being able to go in morning and evening to light them, and dress them, they in course went out; the Jews say (n), that on the eighteenth of Ab, which answers to part of July and August, the western lamp was extinct in the days of Ahaz, for which a fast was kept on that day: and have not burnt incense, nor offered burnt offerings in the holy place unto the God of Israel; but had done these in the high places to idols, Ch2 28:3 . (n) Schulchan Aruch, par. 1. c. 580. sect. 2.
