2 Mga Hari 23:8
Inilabas ni Josias ang lahat ng mga pari mula sa mga lungsod ng Juda at nilapastangan ang mga dambana kung saan nagsunog ng insenso ang mga pari, mula Geba hanggang Beerseba. Winasak niya ang mga dambana sa mga tarangkahan, ang mga dambana na nasa pasukan patungo sa Tarangkahan ni Josue, na itinayo ng isang gobernador ng lungsod na nagngangalang Josue. Ang mga dambanang ito ay nasa gawing kaliwa ng tarangkahan ng lungsod sa pagpasok ng lungsod.This verse in the real world
