"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."--_2 Kings 23:25._
THERE is one more good king to tell you about, whose name was Josiah.
He was great-grandson to good King Hezekiah. The two kings who had come
between Josiah's grandfather and father, had both been very bad men.
His grandfather repented when he fell into trouble, and God forgave
him; but his father never repented, and died in his wickedness when
Josiah was only eight years old. But Josiah was very different. He made
his people break down their idols, and clear out the Temple of the
unholy things they had brought in, and worship God rightly once more.
