Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - 2 Kings 23:1-37
Chapter 23And the king stood by the pillar, and he made a covenant before the LORD, to walk after the LORD, and to keep his commandments and the testimonies and the statutes with their heart and with their soul, and to perform the covenant that was written in the book. And all the people stood to the covenant ( 2 Kings 23:3 ).So the king stood there and in his heart he said, "Okay, God, I'm going to obey You. I'm going to follow You. I'm going to serve You." And made his commitment unto God.... read more

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - 2 Kings 23:1-37
2 Kings 23:29 . He slew him at Megiddo, when he had seen him; as in 2 Kings 14:8. It would seem from this phrase that the two kings were engaged in single combat. This was an error for which Josiah forfeited his life, and the Israelites their glory. The king neither consulted the Lord, nor his prophets. One sad error put out the light of Israel; for with this king, all that belonged to regal virtue in David’s house seemed to expire. REFLECTIONS. On reading the history of the Israelites in... read more

2 Kings 23:1-28And the King sent, and they gathered unto him all the elders of Judah and of Jerusalem.Good aims and bad methodsThe verses I have selected record and illustrate good alms and bad methods.I.

2 Kings 23:2And the King went up into the house of the Lord.Spiritual idolatryWhy should there be such a gathering as this? why should all the mighty, all the good, and all the wise, all the great with all the small, make such a point of going into the house of the Lord on this occasion? Why should they make such a public display about an ordinary duty, such as assembling in the house of the Lord? For two reasons.1. Because that duty had become an extraordinary one, through the long neglect of... read more

2 Kings 23:11And Josiah took away the horses that the Kings of Judah had given to the sun.The imagination in sinJosiah sought to purify Israel from the idolatry that had been established by his predecessors, and in the course of this reformation occurs the incident recorded in the text. He “took away the horses that the Kings of Judah had given to the sun . . . and burned the chariots of the sun with fire.” You ask, What has this to do with the modern world and with modern men? This I wish to... read more

2 Kings 23:22Surely there was not holden such a Passover.Sincerity of repentanceThere is something very striking and melancholy in these words. The children of Israel celebrated their last Passover, all being together, and in such a manner as had not been known since the earlier and better days of their possession of the promised land. It was, in fact, the last repentance of God’s people, and a lively repentance it seems to have been, to judge from outward tokens. But, alas! it did not... read more

2 Kings 23:25-37And like unto him there was no king before him.Josiah’s reformationThis and the previous chapter show us the influence of a godly sovereign. This prince at the age of twenty-six begins to repair the house of God. This leads to the discovery of the long-lost book of the law. At once Josiah obeys its teaching. He consults Huldah, and receives the Lord’s message. Finding himself exempted from vengeance on account of his repentance, he endeavours to lead his people to obtain the... read more
