Josiah's Reforms
-
Removed from service all of the heathen priests who burned incense to the Canaanite pantheon from both Jerusalem to all of Judah
-
Broke down all the heathen alters, idols, high places, and groves round about Judah and burned on their remains the bones of their priests which Josiah executed
Reduced the temple of Molech in the valley of Hinnom to a landfill renamed Gehenna so "that no man might make his son or his daughter to pass through the fire to Molech"
-
Beat down Jeraboam's alter and polluted it and burned the bones of its priests on its remains as prophesied to Jeraboam himself
-
Josiah's Oath
Placed his hand on the Torah and swears to God and with Judah,
-
before the LORD, to walk after the LORD, and to keep his commandments and his testimonies and his statutes with all [our] heart and all [our] soul, to perform the words of this covenant that were written in this book.
I, King Josiah, and my kingdom do solemnly swear...
The Shema
And these words, which I command thee this day, shall be in thine heart:
And thou shalt love the LORD thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might.
Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God is one LORD:
Outro
And like unto him was there no king before him, that turned to the LORD with all his heart, and with all his soul, and with all his might, according to all the law of Moses; neither after him arose there any like him. (2Kings 23:25)
