Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary

Untitled

Translated Open passage

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 (2Ki 22:1,2), we have a particular account of the respect he paid I. To God's house, which he repaired, 2Ki 22:3-7 II. To God's book, which he was much affected with the reading of, 2Ki 22:8-11 III. To God's messengers, whom he thereupon consulted, 2Ki 22:12-14 And by whom he received from God an answer threatening Jerusalem's destruction (2Ki 22:15-17), but promising favour to him (2Ki 22:18-20), upon which he set about that glorious work of reformation which we have an account of in the next chapter.

Adam Clarke's Commentary and Critical Notes on the Bible

2 Kings 22 Introduction

Translated Open passage

Josiah succeeds Amon his father, and reigns thirty-one years, 2 Kings 22:1, 2 Kings 22:2. He repairs the breaches of the temple, 2 Kings 22:3-7. Hilkiah finds the book of the law in the temple, 2 Kings 22:8. It is read by Shaphan the scribe, before the king and his servants, 2 Kings 22:9, 2 Kings 22:10. The king, greatly affected, sends to inquire of Huldah the prophetess, 2 Kings 22:11-13. She delivers an afflictive prophecy concerning the evils that were coming upon the land, 2 Kings 22:14-17. But promises Josiah that these evils shall not come in his time, 2 Kings 22:18-20.

2 Kings 22 Introduction

Translated Open passage

INTRODUCTION TO 2 Kings 22

This chapter begins with the age and character of Josiah king of Judah, 2 Kings 22:1, relates his orders for repairing the temple, 2 Kings 22:3, his attention to the book of the law, which was found, and read to him, and the effect it had upon him, 2 Kings 22:8, the command he gave to certain persons to inquire of the Lord about it, who applied to Huldah the prophetess, 2 Kings 22:12, who returned an answer by them to the king, foretelling the destruction of Jerusalem, and giving the reason of it, and at the same time assuring the king it should not be in his days, 2 Kings 22:15.

Translated Open passage

2Ki 22:1, 2.

JOSIAH'S GOOD REIGN.

1, 2. Josiah was eight years old when he began to reign--Happier than his grandfather Manasseh, he seems to have fallen during his minority under the care of better guardians, who trained him in the principles and practice of piety; and so strongly had his young affections been enlisted on the side of true and undefiled religion, that he continued to adhere all his life, with undeviating perseverance, to the cause of God and righteousness.

Adam Clarke's Commentary and Critical Notes on the Bible

2 Kings 22:1

Translated Open passage

Josiah was eight years old - He was one of the best, if not the best, of all the Jewish kings since the time of David. He began well, continued well, and ended well.

John Gill's Exposition of the Bible

2 Kings 22:1

Translated Open passage

Josiah was eight years old when he began to reign,.... And must be born when his father was but sixteen, for Amon lived but twenty four years, 2 Kings 21:19,

and he reigned thirty and one years in Jerusalem; and so must die at thirty nine years of age:

and his mother's name was Jedidah, the daughter of Adaiah of Boscath; a city of the tribe of Judah; see Gill on Joshua 15:39.

Matthew Poole's Annotations upon the Holy Bible

2 Kings 22:1

Translated Open passage

2 KINGS CHAPTER 22.

Josiah’s good reign; his care for the repair of the temple, 2 Kings 21:1-7. Hilkiah found a book of the law; the king by it understandeth God’s threatenings against backsliders, and by Huldah the prophetess inquireth of the Lord, 2 Kings 21:8-14. She prophesieth the destruction of Jerusalem, but not in Josiah’s time, 2 Kings 22:15-20.

No text from Poole on this verse.

The Pulpit Commentary

2 Kings 22:1

Translated Open passage

Verse 1. - Josiah was eight years old when he began to reign. So the writer of Chronicles (2 Chronicles 34:1) and Josephus ('Ant. Jud.,' 10:4. § 1). He must have been born, therefore, when his father was no more than sixteen years of age, and Amen must have married when he was only fifteen. And he reigned thirty and one years in Jerusalem. Probably from B.C. 640 to B.C. 609 - a most important period of the world's history, including, as it does,

(1) the great Scythic invasion;

(2) the fall of Assyria;

(3) the formation of the Median empire; and the foundation of the Babylonian empire by Nabopolasar. And his mother's name was Jedidah - i.e. "Darling" - the daughter of Adaiah of Boscath. Boscath is mentioned as among the cities of Judah (Joshua 15:39). It lay in the Shefelah (Joshua 15:33), not far from Lachish and Eglon. The recent explorers of Palestine identify it with the modern Um-el-Bikar, two miles and a half southeast of Ajlun (Eglon). (See the 'Map of Western Palestine,' published by Mr. Trelawny Saunders.)
