22:11 Whatever had happened, the king had been ignorant of some provisions of the law.
22:12-13 Josiah’s heart was tender toward God (v. 19). Just as he had searched for God when he was sixteen years old (2Ch 34:3) and had pushed for rebuilding the temple, now he was equally willing to heed this message of sin, guilt, and judgment. He acknowledged that sin had aroused the Lord’s wrath.
22:14 Despite the general false worship that was occurring throughout the land, a true prophetess was known and tolerated just as apostate Samaria had tolerated Elisha (6:32).
22:15-17 The message of the prophetess was that the sins of the nation must be judged.
22:18-20 Because of Josiah’s grief over the sins of the nation, he was assured that destruction would not come until after his death.
