It seems that King Hezekia attempted to institute mnotheism in Judah, but the pagan gods returned under his son and successor, Mannessah.

King Josiah instituted the Deuteronomistic reforms, including the reinstitution of monotheism and the restriction of religious worship to the Jerusalem Temple. Although henceforth monotheistic Judaism was to be the official religion of Judah, The Bible itself points to continued private worship of other gods up until at least the Babylonian Exile.
