Psalm: 120
Meditation: 2 Kings
There are many stories in the Bible of evil children that come from righteous parents but here we see a good and righteous king that comes from generations of evil fathers and kings. Josiah will recognize and acknowledge how far the Judeans have fallen and turn his people back to the Lord. He restores the religion and temple that had been disgraced by his ancestors.
