Dressed in royal robes, a little boy stands next to a great bronze pillar in the Temple court, a jeweled crown balanced on his head. He seems much too small to rule this nation of hardheaded, fickle-hearted people, but centuries before, a man of God had prophesied that this boy, Josiah, would follow Yahwehs heart.Twelve years later, as he turns 20, King Josiah begins to purge Judah of the idolatry of his fathers.
