Huldah the Prophetess Wife of Shallum, a palace employee, and prophetess to whom King Josiah sends the scroll that is discovered during renovations of the Jerusalem temple (2 Kgs 22:8–20; 2 Chr 34:8–28). Huldah prophesies that God will send His wrath against Judah because of its idolatry, but that Josiah will die in peace prior to this disaster. In response, Josiah pursues major religious reforms and works to eliminate idol-worship in Judah.
