Biblical Limericks: The Death of Josiah


Said the Seer Huldah to Josiah:
“You, my young king, are a good guy-ah,
for the Book of the Law
has taught you fear and awe -
Yahweh says: In peace will you die-ah.”

However, our young king Josiah
went to the battlefield to die-ah.
The archers of Pharaoh
shot him with an arrow
and he was mourned by Jeremiah.

2 Kings 22: 11 – 20 / 23: 29
2 Chronicles 34: 22 – 28 / 35: 20 – 25
