So he did in Bethel, sacrificing to the calves that he had made, and he placed in Bethel the priests of the high places which he had made. 33 So he offered upon the altar that he had made in Bethel the fifteenth day of the eighth month, in the month which he had devised in his own heart; and he ordained a feast for the children of Israel, and offered upon the altar, and burnt incense.
