📚 Contexto Histórico
This happened when King Josiah of Judah heard the book of the law (likely Deuteronomy) that had been discovered in the temple during renovation work around 621 BC. The kingdom had strayed far from God's commands for generations, and when Josiah heard what God required versus how his people were actually living, he was overwhelmed with grief. Tearing one's clothes was a common ancient Middle Eastern expression of deep sorrow, mourning, or repentance.
