Correct Answer: Option A

Explanation

King Josiah ordered an inquiry about the words of the book because he was deeply troubled by what he heard when the book of the law was read to him. The words of the book revealed that the people had disobeyed the commandments of the Lord, and as a result, great wrath was kindled against them. Josiah was concerned about the consequences of this disobedience and wanted to seek guidance from the Lord through an inquiry to understand what actions should be taken in response to the situation.
