The succession of Josiah following Amon's assassination sets the stage for another reform and another generation's spiritual testing. The conclusion of Amon's narrative with the establishment of his successor indicates the transition to a new regime with the potential for different directions. The movement from the evil reign of Amon to the establishment of Josiah indicates that divine providence continued to work through the succession of generations. The conclusion of the narrative regarding Manasseh and Amon establishes the pattern of alternating apostasy and reform that characterizes the later monarchy. The transition to Josiah's reign indicates the continuation of the nation's spiritual drama across generations.
