Description

Why was Yoshiyahu so important that his life (and name!) was predicted long before his birth, to Yeravam ben Nevat? And why was Yoshiyahu so important that Yirmiyahu established that he should be mourned in every generation? And if a midrash is correct that not everyone went along with his campaign against Avodah Zarah, why doesn't Tanach mention that? A shiur on Tisha b'Av 5786.
