The kings of Judah were part of the genealogical line that ultimately led to Jesus the Messiah. Knowing that the promised Messiah would destroy him, the devil repeatedly sought to corrupt or eliminate that line. The lives of Uzziah and his forefathers show a consistent pattern: when they stood with God, blessing and prosperity followed; but when they turned away and embraced pagan worship, God’s favor departed and calamity came upon them.
Romans 15:4 …perseverance and the encouragement of the Scriptures we might have hope.
2 Chronicles 26:1 Uzziah was 16 when he began to reign as King.
2 Chronicles 25:1-14, 27 Amaziah, his father, started good, turned to idolatry, then was assassinated.
2 Chronicles 24:2, 18, 25 Joash, his grandfather, started good, turned to idolatry, then was assassinated.
2 Chronicles 22:10 Athaliah, his great grandmother, killed all the royal family. She too was assassinated. Athaliah’s mother was Jezebel.
2 Chronicles 26:3 Uzziah, also known as Azariah, began his reign at 16 and reigned for 52 years.
1. Jehoram was king of Judah and married Athaliah.
These people are part of the genealogical line of Jesus! Why such turmoil?
Genesis 3:15; 22:18; 2 Samuel 7:12-13; Ephesians 6:12; 1 Corinthians 2:8
2 Chronicles 26:3-23 pride was his demise, not idolatry but like his forefathers he did not persevere.
1 Corinthians 15:58; Ephesians 6:13-14; Philippians 1:9-11; Colossians 1:9-12
Romans 15:4 …perseverance and the encouragement of the Scriptures we might have hope.
