Along with his great-grandfather, Hezekiah, Josiah is one of the few kings of Judah worthy of the title of righteous king, similar to David. It is known that Josiah continued the reformist policies of his great-grandfather; according to the narrative, it all began when Josiah decided to repair the Temple. During this work, a copy of the Book of the Law is found, which inspires the king to six significant actions: 1. He seals a covenant before the Lord, signed by all (23:1-3). 2. He undertakes the purification of the cult. 3. He firmly centralizes the cult in Jerusalem and brings all the priests who served at local shrines to the city (23:8). 4. His efforts extend to the northern territories he rules, where he destroys the altar at Bethel. 5. He celebrates the Passover in honor of the Lord (23:22). 6. To better align with the requirements of the Book of the Law, he also removes necromancers, diviners, idols, fetishes, and all the detestable objects of foreign worship remaining in Judah and Jerusalem (23:24).
