| Azariah . . . answered . . . we have had enough--This is probably the person mentioned (Ch2 26:17), and his reply was to the following purport: There has been an abundant harvest, and a corresponding plenty in the incoming of first-fruits and tithes; the people have testified their gratitude to Him who has crowned the year with His goodness by their liberality towards His servants. |
| Notes on the Bible, by Albert Barnes, [1834] |
If this Azariah was the same as he who resisted Uzziah Ch2 26:17-20, he must have held his office at least 33 years. Compare Ch2 27:1; Ch2 28:1.
The Lord hath blessed his people - i. e. God has made the harvest unusually abundant, and hence the great amount of tithes and first-fruits. |
17 And Azariah [05838] the priest [03548] went in [0935] after [0310] him, and with him fourscore [08084] priests [03548] of the LORD [03068], that were valiant [02428] men [01121]:
1 Ahaz [0271] was twenty [06242] years [08141] old [01121] when he began to reign [04427], and he reigned [04427] sixteen [08337] [06240] years [08141] in Jerusalem [03389]: but he did [06213] not that which was right [03477] in the sight [05869] of the LORD [03068], like David [01732] his father [01]:
1 Jotham [03147] was twenty [06242] and five [02568] years [08141] old [01121] when he began to reign [04427], and he reigned [04427] sixteen [08337] [06240] years [08141] in Jerusalem [03389]. His mother's [0517] name [08034] also was Jerushah [03388], the daughter [01323] of Zadok [06659].
17 And Azariah [05838] the priest [03548] went in [0935] after [0310] him, and with him fourscore [08084] priests [03548] of the LORD [03068], that were valiant [02428] men [01121]:
18 And they withstood [05975] Uzziah [05818] the king [04428], and said [0559] unto him, It appertaineth not unto thee, Uzziah [05818], to burn incense [06999] unto the LORD [03068], but to the priests [03548] the sons [01121] of Aaron [0175], that are consecrated [06942] to burn incense [06999]: go out [03318] of the sanctuary [04720]; for thou hast trespassed [04603]; neither shall it be for thine honour [03519] from the LORD [03068] God [0430].
19 Then Uzziah [05818] was wroth [02196], and had a censer [04730] in his hand [03027] to burn incense [06999]: and while he was wroth [02196] with the priests [03548], the leprosy [06883] even rose up [02224] in his forehead [04696] before [06440] the priests [03548] in the house [01004] of the LORD [03068], from beside the incense [07004] altar [04196].
20 And Azariah [05838] the chief [07218] priest [03548], and all the priests [03548], looked [06437] upon him, and, behold, he was leprous [06879] in his forehead [04696], and they thrust him out [0926] from thence; yea, himself hasted [01765] also to go out [03318], because the LORD [03068] had smitten [05060] him.
