Text in Afrikaans / Hierdie verhandeling dek oor die algemeen die groter geheel van die Monargale
Tydvak in die geskiedenis van Israel en Juda. Daar word egter meer spesifiek gefokus
op die koningskap van Josia, `n merkwaardige koning van Juda, en sy godsdienstige
hervormings wat van stapel gestuur is na aanleiding van die vonds van die wetboek in
die Tempel. Die verhaal van Josia word geskets teen die agtergrond van die politieke
klimaat in die antieke Nabye Ooste voor- en tydens sy koningskap. Aandag word dus
gegee aan ander nasies en die invloed wat hulle op Juda gehad het. Daar word ook
gekyk na daardie profete wat moontlik `n invloed op Josia kon gehad het, hetsy
profete wat aktief was tydens sy koningskap of in die jare onmiddellik daarvoor.
Laastens word ook na die Deuteronomistiese Geskiedenis gekyk ten einde die
moontlike verband daarvan met Josia en sy hervormings te bepaal / This dissertation covers, in generaL the topic of the Monarchial Period in the history
of Israel. More specific attention is given to Josiah. a remarkable king of Judah, and
his program of religious refonn, that was set in motion with the discovery of the Book
of the Law in the Temple. The story of Josiah is told against the background of the
political climate in the ancient Near East prior to and also during Josiah's reign. Other
nations and their influence on Judah is carefully considered in this regard. Attention is
also given to those prophets that could possibly have influenced Josiah. Some of these
prophets were active during Josiah's reign and others in the years preceding his reign.
Lastly the Deuteronomistic History is considered to determine the possible links to
Josiah and his refonn program / Biblical and Ancient Studies / M.Th. (Old Testament)
