• The account in Kings connects the cleansing of the temple and of the city (and afterward the destruction of the altar at Bethel) to the discovery of the book of the law in the eighteenth year of Josiah's reign (2 Kings 22:3). The reading of the "book of the covenant" (2 Kings 23:2) incited the king to undertake this work (Jer. 11:1-8). The account in Chronicles has a bearing different from this. In accord with the account in Kings, the book of the law was found in the temple in the eighteenth year of Josiah's reign; in accord with this same account the discovery of the book of the law led to the renewing of the covenant between the king and all his people with God. Only, following this covenant, Chronicles does not mention the abolition of idolatry in the temple and at Jerusalem, but rather, the celebration of the Passover. This latter is mentioned only in passing in 2 Kings 23:21-23, whereas it occupies all of chapter 35 of 2 Chronicles. (“Josiah - The Word of God Recovered: 2 Chronicles 34” by H.L. Rossier)
• If, as we see here, having Israel's cleansing at heart, he had limited himself to that alone, without feeling the need to repair the breaches of the house of God and giving it back its importance, the discovery of the book of the law would never have taken place. (“Josiah - The Word of God Recovered: 2 Chronicles 34” by H.L. Rossier)
