Focus on the Family sponsored a series of videos on Biblical archeology: That the World May Know with teacher Ray Vander Laan. One of the videos featured an excavation of a temple destroyed during Hezekiah’s reign. The temple was in a town outside of Jerusalem.
This replica temple had been pretty much intact with the implements buried within. They believe that the local Jewish community tore down this replica at the behest of Hezekiah who was trying to suppress religious splinter groups. Hezekiah wanted all the Jews to come to Jerusalem for worship.
