 Uzziah
Uzziah is the son and successor of Amaziah, and king of Judah.
It is written in Aramaic, a language spoken in Israel during the Second Temple period (as were Hebrew and Greek) and in style of script that dates it to the latter part of the Second Temple period.
When the priests attempted to send him from the Temple, the king became angry and was immediately stricken with leprosy.

 Seraphim (Part 4) King Uzziah Died, Restoration
Then Uzziah was wroth, and had a censer in his hand to burn incense: and while he was wroth with the priests, the leprosy even rose up in his forehead before the priests in the house of the LORD, from beside the incense altar.
On a different scale, the rule of Uzziah is rampant in the church as well, and it is not uncommon to see it among the sons.
With one voice across the land, they shall declare, "It appertaineth not unto thee, Uzziah, to burn incense unto the LORD, but to the priests the sons of Aaron, that are consecrated to burn incense: go out of the sanctuary; for thou hast trespassed; neither shall it be for thine honour from the LORD God.

 The Uzziah syndrome
Perhaps the most well-known reference to him is in connection with the prophet Isaiah, for it was in the year that Uzziah died that Isaiah saw the vision that made a prophet of him.
But according to the Bible, at the very end of his life, Uzziah was ‘lifted up with pride’ at his achievements, and he forgot the God who had made it all possible.
The symptom of this pride was to be found in the way Uzziah entered the Temple and attempted to offer incense - in spite of the fact that God’s word confined this privilege to the priests, and in spite of the warning of the other priestly staff in the temple at the time.

 Uzziah (2 Chronicles 26) - an article by Paul Hazelden

Saul is replaced by David, Uzziah has to hide away and eke out the final ten years of his life as a leper.

 USCCB - NAB - 2 Chronicles 26
Uzziah, who was holding a censer for burning the incense, became angry, but at the moment he showed his anger to the priests, while they were looking at him in the house of the LORD beside the altar of incense, leprosy broke out on his forehead.
Uzziah rested with his ancestors; he was buried with them in the field adjoining the royal cemetery, for they said, "He was a leper." His son Jotham succeeded him as king.
They opposed King Uzziah, saying to him: "It is not for you, Uzziah, to burn incense to the LORD, but for the priests, the sons of Aaron, who have been consecrated for this purpose.

 Jesse Tree Advent Calendar - December 19 - Uzziah
When 81 of the Temple priests moved to prevent this sacrilege saying, "It is not for you, Uzziah, to burn incense to the LORD," the king became enraged.
One day his pride grew so great that he decided to enter the Temple and burn incense on the altar of incense even though he knew this type of worship was reserved for the priests.
A great earthquake occurred during his reign which was so strong that Zechariah compared it to the earthquake which shall occur when the Lord returns with all his holy ones (Zech 14:5; Amos 1:1).

Uzziah was 16 years old when God allowed him to take the throne over all the peoples of Judah.
Uzziah rested with his fathers and was buried near them in a field for burial that belonged to the kings, for people said, 'He had leprosy.' And Jotham his son succeeded him as king."
I said a moment ago, the same God that gave Uzziah riches and health, was the same one who looked at him in the temple, and said let there be leprosy and that's the way he died.

 Bible History, Old Testament: Vol VII - Chapter 6
As regards the religious condition of the country it is significant that, as the reign of former kings, so the present was characterized by a combination of doing "the right in the sight of Jehovah," with a continuance of "the high places," and their sacrifices and worship.
Important though the reign of Uzziah was - chiefly from a political, but also from a religious point of view - the writer of the Book of Kings gives only a few and these the briefest notices of it.
This state of things was absolutely reversed during the reign of Uzziah; and at its close Judah not only held the same place as Israel under the former reign, but surpassed it in might and glory.

 Uzziah King of Judah
The Children of Israel had laws to abide by and it was up to the priests, the sons of Aaron, to burn the incense unto the Lord.
We are told another important point in these five verses, "as long as he sought the Lord, God made him to prosper." God helped Uzziah reclaim some of the land that the Philistines had taken and the Ammonites paid Uzziah so he wouldn't attack them.
Uzziah had gotten so powerful and wealthy that he thought he no longer needed God.

 Uzziah; (azariah) (International Standard Bible Encyclopedia) :: Bible Tools
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.
This earthquake, we are told by Zechariah, was "in the days of Uzziah, king of Judah" (Zechariah 14:5).
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.

THE STORY OF KING UZZIAH "Perhaps one of the most powerful pseudo gods in modern culture is religion itself.
He decided that he, not they should burn incense in the temple (2 Chronicles 27:16-18)." "Uzziah's community, that is the priests who had been with him throughout his reign, tried to stop him, but he rejected their intervention.
Perhaps that is why Isaiah's vision of the Lord God came after the death of Uzziah."***** "The vision of the Holy is essentially personal.

 YLT Bible (iiChr.26)
And Uzziah the king is a leper unto the day of his death, and inhabiteth a separate house -- a leper, for he hath been cut off from the house of Jehovah, and Jotham his son [is] over the house of the king, judging the people of the land.
And Uzziah is wroth, and in his hand [is] a censer to make perfume, and in his being wroth with the priests -- the leprosy hath risen in his forehead, before the priests, in the house of Jehovah, from beside the altar of perfume.
And Azariah the head priest looketh unto him, and all the priests, and lo, he [is] leprous in his forehead, and they hasten him thence, and also he himself hath hastened to go out, for Jehovah hath plagued him.

 Uzziah
And towards the end of his reign, Uzziah determined that he was fit to offer incense on the altar.
On the religious scene, Uzziah worshipped Jehovah himself, but did not take away the altars in the high places where his people had sacrificed since the time of David.
He was only sixteen at the beginning of his regency, so it can be assumed the priests called the shots.

And Uzziah was a good king and most likely the reason the people placed him on the throne at the age of 16.
And because of that God struck him with leprosy and he was banished from the city and had to co-reign with his son Jotham.
You see, you have a case of spiritual leprosy outside of Christ, and thus, like Uzziah, you will be banished from the kingdom, the kingdom of God.

 Sunday morning
It was in that year that Uzziah, the king, decided that he would begin to wield some of his influence within the temple, and in particular, in regard to the worship of God.
His name “Uzziah” means “God is my strength.” But the other name by which he was known, “Azariah” means “God is my helper.” Those two names sum up the power of Uzziah’s life, of his reign as the king of Israel.
He was the nephew of King Uzziah, and he had grown up watching this great man who had become king as a teenager doing all these wonderful things and seeking after the Lord for so many years of his life.

We also learn from Uzziah that we must have authority for what we do in the work and worship that God demands of his people.
Is it possible that Uzziah’s failure to honor the authority of the priests had some bearing on Jotham’s failure to enter the temple of the Lord?

Verse five says, “Zechariah…instructed him in the fear of God.” Like Uzziah in his early days, we all need to surround ourselves with people who are truly Godly and who will encourage and strengthen us.
Uzziah then used the growing prosperity to provide more and more for his people.
To his credit, as he sought the Lord and God granted him divine wisdom, he became more than just a military dictator.

Eighty-one priests attempted to stop Uzziah from entering the temple of the Lord by saying in verse 18, “It is not right for you, Uzziah, to burn incense to the Lord.
Verse 16 goes on to say, “Uzziah entered the temple of the Lord to burn incense on the alter of incense.” Before Christ died for our sins, humans could only approach God through a high priest in the temple of the Lord.
As Uzziah obeyed God, he received many blessings.
