Pada tahun kedelapan dari pemerintahannya, ketika ia masih muda belia, ia mulai mencari Allah Daud, bapa leluhurnya, dan pada tahun kedua belas ia mulai mentahirkan Yehuda dan Yerusalem dari pada bukit-bukit pengorbanan, tiang-tiang berhala, patung-patung pahatan dan patung-patung tuangan.
Karena pada tahun yang kedelapan dari pada kerajaannya, pada masa ia lagi seorang orang muda, mulailah ia mencahari Allahnya Daud, moyangda baginda itu, dan pada tahun yang kedua belas mulailah ia menyucikan negeri Yehuda dan Yeruzalem dari pada segala panggung dan hutan-hutan dan segala patung ukiran dan patung tuangan.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
For in the eighth year of his reign, while he was yet young,.... Being in the sixteenth year of his age; though Kimchi thinks it was the very year he began to reign, which was the eighth of his age; and Jarchi observes, it may be interpreted, "though he was young, he began to seek after the God of David his father"; to pray unto him, to seek after the knowledge of him, and the true manner of worshipping him, what were his will, commands, and ordinances; the Targum is,
"to seek instruction or doctrine of the Lord God of David his father,''
to be taught his ways, such as David his great ancestor walked in, and whom he chose to follow:
and in the twelfth year he began to purge Judah and Jerusalem from the high places, and the groves and the carved images, and the molten images; which were made in the times of Manasseh; and though removed by him when humbled, were restored in the reign of Amon. Now Josiah purged the land from these, by putting them down, and destroying them; and this he did when he was twenty years of age, having now more authority, being out of his minority, and from under guardians, and one year before Jeremiah began to prophesy, Jeremiah 1:1.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
He began to purge Judah - Jeremiah’s first prophecies Jer. 2–3 appear to have been coincident with Josiah’s earlier efforts to uproot idolatry, and must have greatly strengthened his hands.
