In Josiahs days, cthough he himself did what lay in him to redress the remainder of his fore-fathers abominations, yet dthe people were not thoroughly reformed. eThat therefore which is noted of Gods remembering Manassehs abominations in Josiahs days, was not in regard of Josiah: for it is said, that fhe should be gathered into his grave in 5peace: but it was in regard of the people who continued to cleave to the sins of Manasseh, notwithstanding all the care that Josiah took for an universal reformation. For God will not accept the intercession of his best Saints, when the wickedness of a sinful nation is full, and in that kind perfected.
