2 Chronicles 34

Josiah was eight years old when he became king, and 2 he reigned in Jerusalem thirty-one years. He did what was right in the eyes of the Lord and followed the ways of his father David, not turning aside to the right or to the left. In the eighth year of his reign, while he was still young, he began to seek the God of his father David. In his twelfth year he began to purge Judah and Jerusalem of high places, Asherah poles and idols. 3 2 Chronicles 34:1-3 (NIV)

Under his direction the altars of the Baals were torn down; he cut to pieces the incense altars that were above them, and smashed the Asherah poles and the idols. These he broke to pieces and scattered over 5 the graves of those who had sacrificed to them. He burned the bones of the priests on their altars, and so he purged Judah and Jerusalem. 2 Chronicles 34:4-5 (NIV)

In the towns of Manasseh, Ephraim and Simeon, as far 7 as Naphtali, and in the ruins around them, he tore down the altars and the Asherah poles and crushed the idols to powder and cut to pieces all the incense altars throughout Israel. Then he went back to Jerusalem. 2 Chronicles 34:6-7 (NIV)

Josiah s Verbs of Reform Removed Did away with Took outside and burned Ground to powder Tore down Desecrated Broke down Pulled down Smashed them to pieces Cut down Demolished Defiled

In the eighteenth year of Josiah s reign, to purify the land and the temple, he sent Shaphan son of Azaliah and Maaseiah the ruler of the city, with Joah son of Joahaz, the recorder, to repair the temple of the Lord his God. 2 Chronicles 34:8 (NIV)

They went to Hilkiah the high priest and gave him the money that had been brought into the temple of God, which the Levites who were the gatekeepers had collected from the people of Manasseh, Ephraim and the entire remnant of Israel and from all the people of Judah and Benjamin and the inhabitants of Jerusalem. 2 Chronicles 34:9 (NIV)

Then they entrusted it to the men appointed to supervise the work on the Lord s temple. These men paid the workers who repaired and restored the 11 temple. They also gave money to the carpenters and builders to purchase dressed stone, and timber for joists and beams for the buildings that the kings of Judah had allowed to fall into ruin. 2 Chronicles 34:10-11 (NIV)

While they were bringing out the money that had been taken into the temple of the Lord, Hilkiah the priest found the Book of the Law of the Lord that had been 15 given through Moses. Hilkiah said to Shaphan the secretary, I have found the Book of the Law in the temple of the Lord. He gave it to Shaphan. 2 Chronicles 34:14-15 (NIV)

Then Shaphan took the book to the king and reported to him: Your officials are doing everything that has 17 been committed to them. They have paid out the money that was in the temple of the Lord and have 18 entrusted it to the supervisors and workers. Then Shaphan the secretary informed the king, Hilkiah the priest has given me a book. And Shaphan read from it in the presence of the king. 2 Chronicles 34:16-18 (NIV)

When the king heard the words of the Law, he tore 20 his robes. He gave these orders to Hilkiah, Ahikam son of Shaphan, Abdon son of Micah, Shaphan the 21 secretary and Asaiah the king s attendant: Go and inquire of the Lord for me and for the remnant in Israel and Judah about what is written in this book that has been found. Great is the Lord s anger that is poured out on us because those who have gone before us have not kept the word of the Lord; they have not acted in accordance with all that is written in this book. 2 Chronicles 34:19-21 (NIV)

This is what the Lord says: I am going to bring disaster on this place and its people all the curses written in the book that has been read in the presence of the 25 king of Judah. Because they have forsaken me and burned incense to other gods and aroused my anger by all that their hands have made, my anger will be poured out on this place and will not be quenched. 2 Chronicles 34:24-25 (NIV)

Tell the king of Judah, who sent you to inquire of the Lord, This is what the Lord, the God of Israel, says 27 concerning the words you heard: Because your heart was responsive and you humbled yourself before God when you heard what he spoke against this place and its people, and because you humbled yourself before me and tore your robes and wept in my presence, I 28 have heard you, declares the Lord. Now I will gather you to your ancestors, and you will be buried in peace. Your eyes will not see all the disaster I am going to bring on this place and on those who live here. So they took her answer back to the king. 2 Chronicles 34:26-28 (NIV)

Then the king called together all the elders of Judah 30 and Jerusalem. He went up to the temple of the Lord with the people of Judah, the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the priests and the Levites all the people from the least to the greatest. He read in their hearing all the words of the Book of the Covenant, which had been 31 found in the temple of the Lord. The king stood by his pillar and renewed the covenant in the presence of the Lord to follow the Lord and keep his commands, statutes and decrees with all his heart and all his soul, and to obey the words of the covenant written in this book. 2 Chronicles 34:29-31 (NIV)

Then he had everyone in Jerusalem and Benjamin pledge themselves to it; the people of Jerusalem did this in accordance with the covenant of God, the God of their ancestors. Josiah removed all the detestable idols from all the territory belonging to the Israelites, and he had all who were present in Israel serve the Lord their God. As long as he lived, they did not fail to follow the Lord, the God of their ancestors. 33 2 Chronicles 34:32-33 (NIV)

Josiah s Resume Josiah was eight years old when he became king, and he reigned in 2 Jerusalem thirty-one years. He did what was right in the eyes of the Lord and followed the ways of his father David, not turning aside to the right or to the left. 2 Chronicles 34:1-2 (NIV) Family Character Spiritual Legacy Breaker (2 Chronicles 33:21-23) Integrity Keeper (2 Chronicles 34:2) Worship Reformer (2 Chronicles 34-35) - Removed the Idols (vv. 34:3-7) Generous Leader - Restored the Temple (vv. 34:8-13) Rediscovered the Word (vv. 34:14-23) Repented for Disobedience (vv. 34:26-28) Renewed the Covenant (vv. 34:29-32) Sacrificial Giver (2 Chronicles 35:7-8) Judah s Soldier (2 Chronicles 35:20-24)
