AnswerThe book found, or supposedly found, in the Temple during the reign of King Josiah was the 'Book of Law', believed to have been the Book of Deuteronomy. Scholars say that the relatively modern Hebrew language in the book, along with its similarity of style to other books written during the reign of Josiah (Joshua, Judges, 1 Samuel, 2 Samuel, 1 Kings and 2 Kings), indicate that this book was also written during this time and only placed in the Temple in order to be 'found' there. This allowed Josiah to claim antiquity for the book when reading it to the people of Jerusalem.

Who was king Josiah?

A:According to 2 Kings, King Hezekia, great grandfather of Josiah attempted to introduce monotheism and centralised worship in the Temple of Jerusalem, possibly as a means of achieving national unity after the fall of Israel and the influx of large numbers of refugees. That attempt failed, and Hezekia's successor, Manasseh, allowed polytheism to return. King Josiah again instituted monotheistic Judaism, based on the worship of the national God, Yahweh. According to 2 Kings, Judah was from that point forward an exclusively monotheistic state, although some scholars say that polytheistic worship continued right up until the time of the Babylonian Exile. A minority of scholars say that the introduction of monotheism did not take place during the reign of Josiah, but that it really happened during the Babylonian Exile and the story of Josiah's achievemnt was written back into 2 Kings. Certalinly there is documentary evidence in the prophetic books of polytheism surviving until at least the Exile.The Bible describes how a 'book of law', now believed to be the Book of Deuteronomy was found in the Temple during renovations.
