Jeremiah: Josiah was the last good and faithful king of Judah. Jehoiakim, son of Josiah, was an evil, and it turns out, an arrogant king. Fair warning had been given during the reign of Josiah his father, but that waning was not heeded – that is why Josiah died young. Jehoiakim, when he was listening to the scroll being read (remember this was the word of the LORD from Jeremiah) would tear that segment and burn it in the fire.
