King Josiah stands in anguish, clutching his robe as the words of the recovered Law are read aloud from a scroll. Beside him, a royal scribe in white garments holds the parchment with solemn authority, marking the moment when Judah’s king realizes how far the nation has strayed from the covenant of the Lord. The palace setting and the king’s torn posture emphasize repentance, conviction, and the weight of divine judgment.
This scene reflects the account in 2 Kings 22 and 2 Chronicles 34, when the Book of the Law is found in the temple and read before Josiah. His response is not pride but humility: he tears his clothes and seeks the word of the Lord. The image is well suited for teaching on Scripture, repentance, revival, obedience, covenant renewal, and the transforming power of God’s Word.
