Jeremiah 44:18

The suppression of this popular idolatry had apparently been regarded with much ill-will in Josiah' s time, and many may even have ascribed to it his defeat at Megiddo. Probably Jehoiakim had again permitted it, but Zedekiah, during the miseries of his reign, had forbidden it, and the people ascribed the fall of Jerusalem to the neglect of their favorite goddess.
