Because thine heart was tender, and thou hast humbled thyself before the LORD, when thou heardest what I spake against this place, and against the inhabitants thereof, that they should become a desolation and a curse, and hast rent thy clothes, and wept before me; I also have heard [thee], saith the LORD.

Theological / Devotional

Tender. Humility and tenderness of heart are among the outstanding Christian graces. The tender heart of Josiah caused him to respond to the influences of God’s Holy Spirit and to be deeply moved by the sins of the people that were bringing so much of woe and distress.
