His account is primarily found in <a href="/bsb/2_kings/15.htm">2 Kings 15</a> and <a href="/bsb/2_chronicles/26.htm">2 Chronicles 26</a>. Uzziah's reign is noted for its length, prosperity, and eventual downfall due to pride. He is remembered as a king who initially sought the Lord and was blessed with success, but whose later years were marred by disobedience. Reign and Achievements: Uzziah became king at the age of sixteen after the death of his father, Amaziah. His reign lasted for fifty-two years, making it one of the longest in the history of Judah. "He did what was right in the eyes of the LORD, just as his father Amaziah had done" (<a href="/2_kings/15-3.htm">2 Kings 15:3</a>). Under the guidance of Zechariah, who instructed him in the fear of God, Uzziah sought the Lord, and "as long as he sought the LORD, God gave him success" (<a href="/2_chronicles/26-5.htm">2 Chronicles 26:5</a>). Uzziah's reign was marked by significant military and economic achievements. He fortified Jerusalem, built towers, and strengthened the army with advanced weaponry. He also expanded Judah's territory and influence, subduing the Philistines and Arabs. His agricultural projects, including the construction of cisterns and the promotion of farming, contributed to the prosperity of the nation. Pride and Downfall: Despite his successes, Uzziah's pride led to his downfall. In a moment of arrogance, he entered the temple of the LORD to burn incense on the altar, a duty reserved for the priests, the descendants of Aaron. The priests confronted him, warning him of his transgression, but Uzziah, in his anger, persisted. "While he was raging at the priests in their presence before the incense altar in the house of the LORD, leprosy broke out on his forehead" (<a href="/2_chronicles/26-19.htm">2 Chronicles 26:19</a>). As a result of his leprosy, Uzziah lived in isolation until his death, and his son Jotham took over the responsibilities of governance. His leprosy was seen as a divine judgment for his disobedience, and he was remembered as a king who was strong but ultimately flawed by pride. Legacy: Uzziah's reign is a testament to the blessings of seeking the Lord and the dangers of pride. His account serves as a reminder of the importance of humility and obedience to God's commandments. Despite his failings, Uzziah is listed in the genealogy of Jesus Christ in the Gospel of Matthew, indicating his place in the messianic line.

In some passages his name appears in the lengthened form Azariah: After the murder of Amaziah, his son Uzziah was chosen by the people, at the age of sixteen, to occupy the vacant throne; and for the greater part of his long reign of fifty-two years he lived in the fear of God, and showed himself a wise, active and pious ruler. He never deserted the worship of the true God, and was much influenced by Zechariah, a prophet who is mentioned only in connection with him. (<a href="/2_chronicles/26-5.htm">2 Chronicles 26:5</a>) So the southern kingdom was raised to a condition of prosperity which it had not known since the death of Solomon. The end of Uzziah was less prosperous than his beginning. Elated with his splendid career, he determined to burn incense on the altar of God, but was opposed by the high priest Azariah and eighty others. See (<a href="/exodus/30-7.htm">Exodus 30:7,8</a>; <a href="/numbers/16-40.htm">Numbers 16:40</a>; <a href="/numbers/18-7.htm">18:7</a>) The king was enraged at their resistance, and, as he pressed forward with his censer was suddenly smitten with leprosy. This lawless attempt to burn incense was the only exception to the excellence of his administration. (<a href="/2_chronicles/27-2.htm">2 Chronicles 27:2</a>) Uzziah was buried "with his fathers," yet apparently not actually in the royal sepulchres.

His long reign of about fifty-two years was "the most prosperous excepting that of Jehosaphat since the time of Solomon." He was a vigorous and able ruler, and "his name spread abroad, even to the entering in of Egypt" (<a href="/2_chronicles/26-8.htm">2 Chronicles 26:8</a>, 14). In the earlier part of his reign, under the influence of Zechariah, he was faithful to Jehovah, and "did that which was right in the sight of the Lord" (<a href="/2_kings/15-3.htm">2 Kings 15:3</a>; <a href="/2_chronicles/26-4.htm">2 Chronicles 26:4</a>, 5); but toward the close of his long life "his heart was lifted up to his destruction," and he wantonly invaded the priest's office (<a href="/2_chronicles/26-16.htm">2 Chronicles 26:16</a>), and entering the sanctuary proceeded to offer incense on the golden altar. Azariah the high priest saw the tendency of such a daring act on the part of the king, and with a band of eighty priests he withstood him (<a href="/2_chronicles/26-17.htm">2 Chronicles 26:17</a>), saying, "It appertaineth not unto thee, Uzziah, to burn incense." Uzziah was suddenly struck with leprosy while in the act of offering incense (<a href="/2_chronicles/26-19.htm">26:19</a>-21), and he was driven from the temple and compelled to reside in "a several house" to the day of his death (<a href="/2_kings/15-5.htm">2 Kings 15:5</a>, 27; <a href="/2_chronicles/26-3.htm">2 Chronicles 26:3</a>). He was buried in a separate grave "in the field of the burial which belonged to the kings" (<a href="/2_kings/15-7.htm">2 Kings 15:7</a>; <a href="/2_chronicles/26-23.htm">2 Chronicles 26:23</a>). "That lonely grave in the royal necropolis would eloquently testify to coming generations that all earthly monarchy must bow before the inviolable order of the divine will, and that no interference could be tolerated with that unfolding of the purposes of God, which, in the fulness of time, would reveal the Christ, the true High Priest and King for evermore" (Dr. Green's Kingdom of Israel, etc.).(2.)

It has been thought that the form "Uzziah" may have originated by corruption from the other. The history of the reign is given in <a href="/2_kings/15-1.htm">2 Kings 15:1-8</a> and <a href="/nasb/2_chronicles/26.htm">2 Chronicles 26</a>): 1. Accession: Uzziah or Azariah, son of Amaziah, and 11th king of Judah, came to the throne at the age of 16. The length of his reign is given as 52 years. The chronological questions raised by this statement are considered below. His accession may here be provisionally dated in 783 B.C. His father Amaziah had met his death by popular violence (<a href="/2_kings/14-19.htm">2 Kings 14:19</a>), but Uzziah seems to have been the free and glad choice of the people (<a href="/2_chronicles/26-1.htm">2 Chronicles 26:1</a>). 2. Foreign Wars: The unpopularity of his father, owing to a great military disaster, must ever have been present to the mind of Uzziah, and early in his reign he undertook and successfully carried through an expedition against his father's enemies of 20 years before, only extending his operations over a wider area. The Edomites, Philistines and Arabians were successively subdued (these being members of a confederacy which, in an earlier reign, had raided Jerusalem and nearly extirpated the royal family, <a href="/2_chronicles/21-16.htm">2 Chronicles 21:16</a>; <a href="/2_chronicles/22-1.htm">2 Chronicles 22:1</a>); the port of Eloth, at the head of the Red Sea, was restored to Judah, and the city rebuilt (<a href="/2_kings/14-22.htm">2 Kings 14:22</a> <a href="/2_chronicles/26-2.htm">2 Chronicles 26:2</a>); the walls of certain hostile towns, Gath, Jabneh and Ashdod, were razed to the ground, and the inhabitants of Gur-baal and Maan were reduced to subjection (<a href="/2_chronicles/26-6.htm">2 Chronicles 26:6, 7</a>). Even the Ammonites, East of the Jordan, paid tribute to Uzziah, and "his name spread abroad even to the entrance to Egypt; for he waxed exceeding strong" (<a href="/2_chronicles/26-8.htm">2 Chronicles 26:8</a>). 3. Home Defenses: Uzziah next turned his attention to securing the defenses of his capital and country. The walls of Jerusalem were strengthened by towers built at the corner gate, at the valley gate, and at an angle in the wall (see plan of Jerusalem in the writer's Second Temple in Jerusalem); military stations were also formed in Philistia, and in the wilderness of the Negeb, and these were supplied with the necessary cisterns for rain storage (<a href="/2_chronicles/26-6.htm">2 Chronicles 26:6, 10</a>). The little realm had now an extension and prosperity to which it had been a stranger since the days of Solomon. 4. Uzziah's Leprosy and Retirement: These successes came so rapidly that Uzziah had hardly passed his 40th year when a great personal calamity overtook him. In the earlier part of his career Uzziah had enjoyed and profited by the counsels of Zechariah, a man "who had understanding in the vision of God" (<a href="/2_chronicles/26-5.htm">2 Chronicles 26:5</a>), and during the lifetime of this godly monitor "be set himself to seek God." Now it happened to him as with his grandfather Jehoash, who, so long as his preserver Jehoiada lived, acted admirably, but, when he died, behaved like an ingrate, and killed his son (<a href="/2_kings/12-2.htm">2 Kings 12:2</a> <a href="/2_chronicles/24-2.htm">2 Chronicles 24:2, 22</a>). So now that Zechariah was gone, Uzziah's heart was lifted up in pride, and he trespassed against Yahweh. In the great kingdoms of the East, the kings had been in the habit of exercising priestly as well as royal functions. Elated with his prosperity, Uzziah determined to exercise what he may have thought was his royal prerogative in burning incense on the golden altar of the temple. Azariah the high priest, with 80 others, offered stout remonstrance; but the king was only angry, and pressed forward with a censer in his hand, to offer the incense. Ere, however, he could scatter the incense on the coals, and while yet in anger, the white spots of leprosy showed themselves upon his forehead. Smitten in conscience, and thrust forth by the priests, he hastened away, and was a leper ever after (<a href="/2_chronicles/26-16.htm">2 Chronicles 26:16-21</a>). Uzziah's public life was now ended. In his enforced privacy, he may still have occupied himself with his cattle and agricultural operations, "for he loved husbandry" (<a href="/2_chronicles/26-10.htm">2 Chronicles 26:10</a>); but his work in the government was over. Both Kings and Chronicles state in nearly identical words: "Jotham the king's son was over the household, judging the people of the land" (<a href="/2_kings/15-5.htm">2 Kings 15:5</a> <a href="/2_chronicles/26-21.htm">2 Chronicles 26:21</a>). Works of the same kind as those undertaken by Uzziah, namely, building military stations in the hills and forests of Judah, repairing the walls of city and temple, etc., are attributed to Jotham (<a href="/2_chronicles/27-3.htm">2 Chronicles 27:3</a>); the truth being that Jotham continued and completed the enterprises his father had undertaken. 5. Chronology of Reign: The chronology of the reign of Uzziah presents peculiar difficulties, some of which, probably, cannot be satisfactorily solved. Reckoning upward from the fall of Samaria in 721 B.C., the Biblical data would suggest 759 as the first year of Jotham. If, as is now generally conceded, Jotham's regnal years are reckoned from the commencement of his regency, when his father had been stricken with leprosy, and if, as synchronisms seem to indicate, Uzziah was about 40 years of age at this time, we are brought for the year of Uzziah's accession to 783. His death, 52 years later, would occur in 731. (On the other hand, it is known that Isaiah, whose call was in the year of Uzziah's death, <a href="/isaiah/6-1.htm">Isaiah 6:1</a>, was already exercising his ministry in the reign of Jotham, <a href="/isaiah/1-1.htm">Isaiah 1:1</a>.) Another note of time is furnished by the statement that the earliest utterance of Amos the prophet was "two years before the earthquake" (<a href="/amos/1-1.htm">Amos 1:1</a>). This earthquake, we are told by Zechariah, was "in the days of Uzziah, king of Judah" (<a href="/zechariah/14-5.htm">Zechariah 14:5</a>). Josephus likewise embodies a tradition that the earthquake occurred at the moment of the king's entry into the temple (Ant., IX, x, 4). Indubitably the name of Uzziah was associated in the popular mind with this earthquake. If the prophecy of Amos was uttered a year or two before Jeroboam's death, and this is placed in 759 B.C., we are brought near to the date already given for Uzziah's leprosy (Jeroboam's date is put lower by others). In 2 Kings 15 Uzziah is referred to as giving data for the accessions of the northern kings (15:8, Zechariah; 15:13, Shallum; 15:17, Menahem; 15:23, Pekahiah; 15:27, Pekah), but it is difficult to fit these synchronisms into any scheme of chronology, if taken as regnal years. Uzziah is mentioned as the father of Jotham in <a href="/2_kings/15-32.htm">2 Kings 15:32, 34</a> <a href="/2_chronicles/27-2.htm">2 Chronicles 27:2</a>, and as the grandfather of Ahaz in <a href="/isaiah/7-1.htm">Isaiah 7:1</a>. He was living when Isaiah began his ministry (<a href="/isaiah/1-1.htm">Isaiah 1:1</a>; <a href="/isaiah/6-1.htm">Isaiah 6:1</a>); when Hoses prophesied (<a href="/hosea/1-1.htm">Hosea 1:1</a>); and is the king in whose reign the afore-mentioned earthquake took place (<a href="/zechariah/14-5.htm">Zechariah 14:5</a>). His name occurs in the royal genealogies in <a href="/1_chronicles/3-11.htm">1 Chronicles 3:11</a> and <a href="/matthew/1-8.htm">Matthew 1:8, 9</a>. The place of his entombment, owing to his having been a leper, was not in the sepulchers of the kings, but "in the garden of Uzza" (<a href="/2_kings/21-26.htm">2 Kings 21:26</a>; compare <a href="/2_chronicles/26-23.htm">2 Chronicles 26:23</a>). Isaiah is stated to have written a life of Uzziah (<a href="/2_chronicles/26-22.htm">2 Chronicles 26:22</a>). W.
