<p class="tab-1">This chapter begins the story of the reign of good king Josiah, whose goodness shines the brighter because it came just after so much wickedness, which he had the honour to reform, and just before so great a destruction, which yet he had not the honour to prevent. Here, after his general character (<a class="bibleref" title="2Kgs.22.1,2Kgs.22.2" href="/passage/?search=2Kgs.22.1,2Kgs.22.2"><span class="bibleref" title="2Kgs.22.1">2 Kgs. 22:1</span>, <span class="bibleref" title="2Kgs.22.2">2</span></a>), we have a particular account of the respect he paid I. To Gods house, which he repaired, <a class="bibleref" title="2Kgs.22.3-2Kgs.22.7" href="/passage/?search=2Kgs.22.3-2Kgs.22.7">2 Kgs. 22:3-7</a> II. To Gods book, which he was much affected with the reading of, <a class="bibleref" title="2Kgs.22.8-2Kgs.22.11" href="/passage/?search=2Kgs.22.8-2Kgs.22.11">2 Kgs. 22:8-11</a> III. To Gods messengers, whom he thereupon consulted, <a class="bibleref" title="2Kgs.22.12-2Kgs.22.14" href="/passage/?search=2Kgs.22.12-2Kgs.22.14">2 Kgs. 22:12-14</a> And by whom he received from God an answer threatening Jerusalems destruction (<a class="bibleref" title="2Kgs.22.15-2Kgs.22.17" href="/passage/?search=2Kgs.22.15-2Kgs.22.17">2 Kgs. 22:15-17</a>), but promising favour to him (<a class="bibleref" title="2Kgs.22.18-2Kgs.22.20" href="/passage/?search=2Kgs.22.18-2Kgs.22.20">2 Kgs. 22:18-20</a>), upon which he set about that glorious work of reformation which we have an account of in the next chapter.</p>
