Among the measures taken by King Josiah to reform the religious practices of the Judeans was a ban on sacrifices “to the sun and to the moon and to the constellations of the zodiac and to all the army of the heavens. ”
Kad ķēniņš Josija attīrīja Jūdeju no elku pielūgsmes, viņš arī aizliedza nest upurus ” saulei un mēnesim, zvaigznājiem un visiem debesu zvaigžņu pulkiem ” (LB - 65r).
