2 Kings 23:15 in Context — 2 Kings 23

13 Asimismo profanó el rey los altos que estaban delante de Jerusalem, á la mano derecha del monte de la destrucción, los cuales Salomón rey de Israel había edificado á Astharoth, abominación de los Sidonios, y á Chêmos abominación de Moab, y á Milcom abominación de los hijos de Ammón.

14 Y quebró las estatuas, y taló los bosques, é hinchió el lugar de ellos de huesos de hombres.

15 Igualmente el altar que estaba en Beth-el, y el alto que había hecho Jeroboam hijo de Nabat, el que hizo pecar á Israel, aquel altar y el alto destruyó; y quemó el alto, y lo tornó en polvo, y puso fuego al bosque.

16 Y volvióse Josías, y viendo los sepulcros que estaban allí en el monte, envió y sacó los huesos de los sepulcros, y quemólos sobre el altar para contaminarlo, conforme á la palabra de Jehová que había profetizado el varón de Dios, el cual había anunciado estos negocios.

17 Y después dijo: ¿Qué título es este que veo? Y los de la ciudad le respondieron: Este es el sepulcro del varón de Dios que vino de Judá, y profetizó estas cosas que tú has hecho sobre el altar de Beth-el.
