Avant lui, il n'y avait pas eu de roi semblable à lui, qui se fût tourné vers l'Éternel de tout son coeur, de toute son âme et de toute sa force, selon toute la loi de Moïse; et après lui, il ne s'en est point élevé de semblable à lui.
Avant Josias, il n'y eut point de roi qui, comme lui, revînt à l'Eternel de tout son coeur, de toute son âme et de toute sa force, selon toute la loi de Moïse; et après lui, il n'en a point paru de semblable.
Avant lui il n'y eut point de Roi qui lui fut semblable, qui se retournât vers l'Eternel de tout son cœur, et de toute son âme, et de toute sa force; selon toute la Loi de Moïse; et après lui il ne s'en est point levé de semblable à lui.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And like unto him was there no king before him,.... The same is said of Hezekiah, 2 Kings 18:5, Hezekiah might excel him in some things, as Josiah might excel Hezekiah in others:
that turned to the Lord with all his heart, and with all his soul, and with all his might; with such sincerity, heartiness, zeal, and constancy:
according to all the law of Moses; having respect to every commandment, especially relative to worship, with the greatest precision and exactness:
neither after him arose there any like him; for all to the captivity were wicked princes.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
And like unto him ... - See 2 Kings 18:5 note. We must not press the letter of either passage, but regard both kings as placed among the very best of the kings of Judah.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 2 Kings 23:25. Like unto him was there no king — Perhaps not one from the time of David; and, morally considered, including David himself, none ever sat on the Jewish throne, so truly exemplary in his own conduct, and so thoroughly zealous in the work of God. David was a greater but not a better man than Josiah.
