(Occurrence 0) He cleared
(Some words not found in UHB: and,tore_down DOM houses_of the,male_cult_prostitutes which/who in=house_of YHWH which/who the,women weaving there hangings for_the,asherah )
The word “He” refers to Josiah. He would have commanded his workers to do these things. Hilkiah and the priests who assisted him did these things. Alternate translation: “He had them clear”
(Occurrence 0) wove garments

Alternate translation: “made clothes”
23:5-7 Josiah stopped the idolatrous priests from officiating over pagan rituals. He also demolished the living quarters of the cult prostitutes. Manasseh and Amon apparently had allowed the prostitution carried over from Canaanite practices (see 1 Kgs 14:24; 15:12; 22:46) to be practiced within the Temple itself.

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
