“And Azariah rested with his fathers and was buried near them in the City of David. And his son Jotham reigned in his place.”
2 Kings 15:7 (BSB)
Context Reading
5And the LORD afflicted the king with leprosy until the day he died, so that he lived in a separate house while his son Jotham had charge of the palace and governed the people of the land. 6As for the rest of the acts of Azariah, along with all his accomplishments, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah? 7And Azariah rested with his fathers and was buried near them in the City of David. And his son Jotham reigned in his place. 8In the thirty-eighth year of Azariah’s reign over Judah, Zechariah son of Jeroboam became king of Israel, and he reigned in Samaria six months. 9And he did evil in the sight of the LORD, as his fathers had done. He did not turn away from the sins that Jeroboam son of Nebat had caused Israel to commit.
