شرح للأطفال
Imagine if your school had a statue that some kids thought was magical. King Josiah found a statue like that in God's house. He took it away, burned it, and made sure no one could use it again by spreading the ashes. It's like getting rid of a toy that distracts you from learning your lessons.
