MORNING WATCH NOTES:
As the restoration of the temple was being carried out the “Book of the Law” (likely Genesis through Deuteronomy) was discovered. Apparently all the books of Moses had been destroyed by previous godless Kings. This sole copy was left in the temple in storage. It was found by Hilkiah, the High Priest. He would have been very aware of its significance.
The “Book” was presented to King Josiah during a routine progress report on the Temple restoration (“Oh, by the way…”). But it was a stunning discovery, and lead ultimately to revival and reform under Josiah. I am reminded of the words, “Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away” (Mat 24:35). Lord, may I always honor and cherish your holy word.
