Sesudah itu berdirilah raja dekat tiang dan diadakannyalah perjanjian di hadapan TUHAN untuk hidup dengan mengikuti TUHAN, dan tetap menuruti perintah-perintah-Nya, peraturan-peraturan-Nya dan ketetapan-ketetapan-Nya dengan segenap hati dan dengan segenap jiwa dan untuk menepati perkataan perjanjian yang tertulis dalam kitab itu. Dan seluruh rakyat turut mendukung perjanjian itu.
Maka bagindapun berdiri hampir dengan tiang, serta dibuatnya suatu perjanjian di hadapan hadirat Tuhan, hendak berjalan mengikut Tuhan dan memeliharakan segala hukum-Nya dan firman-Nya dan syariat-Nya dengan segenap hatinya dan dengan segenap jiwanya, hendak meneguhkan segala perkataan perjanjian ini, yang tersurat di dalam kitab itu. Maka segenap orang banyakpun masuklah perjanjian itu.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And the king stood by a pillar,.... As the manner of kings was, 2 Kings 11:14 and is thought to be the brasen scaffold erected by Solomon, on which he stood at the dedication of the temple, and now Josiah at the reading of the law, 2 Chronicles 6:13, it is said to be his place, 2 Chronicles 34:31,
2 Chronicles 34:31- :
and made a covenant before the Lord: agreed and promised in the presence of God, both he and his people:
to walk after the Lord: the worship of the Lord, as the Targum; closely to attend to that:
and to keep his commandments, and his testimonies, and his statutes: all the laws of God, moral, civil, and ceremonial:
with all their heart, and all their soul: cordially and sincerely:
to perform the words of the covenant that were written in this book: lately found, and now read unto them:
and all the people stood to the covenant: agreed to it, and promised to keep it; so the Targum,
"all the people took upon them the covenant,''
engaged to observe it.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
By a pillar - Rather, “upon the pillar” (see 2 Kings 11:14, note).
Made a covenant - “The covenant.” Josiah renewed the old covenant made between God and His people in Horeb Deuteronomy 5:2, so far at least as such renewal was possible by the mere act of an individual. He bound himself by a solemn promise to the faithful performance of the entire Law.
With all their heart - “Their” rather than “his,” because the king was considered as pledging the whole nation to obedience with himself. He and they “stood to it,” i. e., “accepted it, came into the covenant.”
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 2 Kings 23:3. Stood by a pillar — He stood, על העמוד al haammud, "upon the stairs or pulpit." This is what is called the brazen scaffold or pulpit which Solomon made, and on which the kings were accustomed to stand when they addressed the people. See 2 Chronicles 6:13, and the parallel places.
Made a covenant — This was expressed,
1. In general. To walk after Jehovah; to have no gods besides him.
2. To take his law for the regulation of their conduct.
3. In particular. To bend their whole heart and soul to the observance of it, so that, they might not only have religion without, but, piety within.
To this all the people stood up, thus giving their consent, and binding themselves to obedience.
