2 Chronicles 26

Uzziah becomes king at sixteen and seeks the Lord in his early years. God helps him defeat enemies, strengthen Jerusalem, and develop agriculture and military innovations. His fame spreads widely. But pride corrupts him. Uzziah enters the temple to burn incense—something only priests may do. When confronted, he becomes angry, and God strikes him with leprosy. He remains isolated until death, and his son Jotham governs in his place.

Christ-Foreshadowing: Uzziah’s judgment for violating the priesthood highlights the need for Christ, the only true and sinless Priest-King who can stand before God.
