“I can at least say that these verses existed in the 7th century ... the time of the prophet Jeremiah and the time of King Josiah,” Barkay said.

Read about King Josiah in 2 Kings 22-23.

King Josiah presided over a major religious revival, and when they went to clean up the Temple, Hilkiah, the high priest, "found the Book of the Law in the temple of the Lord", which had apparently been gathering dust during the reign of the preceeding evil backslidden Judean kings.

I wonder if this scroll was copied from what Hilkiah found.

It is always prudent to chase down the scriptures referenced in an article. The Holy Spirit may have some beautiful nuggets of truth He wants to share, as with the one you found.

Bravo! God always rewards the diligent student.
