Which action did King Josiah take in response to the state of Judah that was seen as a significant reform?

  1. He built new fortifications around Jerusalem
  2. He discovered and read the Book of the Law and initiated religious reforms ✓
  3. He established alliances with neighboring nations
  4. He expanded the city of Jerusalem

Explanation

When workers found a lost copy of God’s Law during temple repairs, King Josiah read it and realized Judah had strayed far from God. He immediately started fixing the problems.

Josiah destroyed idols, removed false priests, and brought people back to worshiping God properly. He did not focus on buildings or political alliances.

His reforms show what happens when someone truly listens to God’s Word and acts on it.
