Josiah (Koine Greek: Ἰωσίας; Latin: Iosias) or Yoshiyahu (Biblical Hebrew: יֹאשִׁיָּהוּ, romanized: Yōʾšiyyāhū, lit. 'healed or supported by Yahweh') was the 16th king of Judah (c. 640–609 BC). Described as "one of Judah’s most important kings," his reign likely marked a turning point in the development of Yahwism.
