📚 Contexto Histórico
This took place during King Josiah's religious reforms around 621 BC, when he was purging Judah of all forms of idol worship. Previous kings had introduced sun worship practices, including keeping sacred horses and chariots at the temple entrance, which was a common practice in ancient Near Eastern religions. Josiah was systematically removing all traces of false worship to restore proper worship of the God of Israel.
