Zephaniah 1:4

I will cut off the remnant of Baal - I think he refers here, partly at least, to the reformation which Josiah was to bring about. See the account, 2 Kings 23:5 ; (note).

The Chemarims - The black-robed priests of different idols. See the note on 2 Kings 23:6 . These were put down by Josiah.
