Uzziah

Uzziah ( /əˈzaɪə/; Hebrew: עֻזִּיָּהוּ, meaning Yahweh is my strength; Greek: Οζίας; Latin: Ozias), also known as Azariah ( /ˈæzəˈraɪə/; Hebrew: עֲזַרְיָה Greek: Αζαρις; Latin: Azarias), was the king of the ancient Kingdom of Judah, and one of Amaziah's sons, whom the people appointed to replace his father (2 Kings 14:21; 2 Chronicles 26:1). (According to the Catholic Encyclopedia, the second form of his name most likely results from a copyist's error.) He is one of the kings mentioned in the genealogy of Jesus in the Gospel of Matthew.
