Contextual Overview

1 In the twenty-seventh year of Yarov`am king of Yisra'el began `Azaryah son of Amatzyah king of Yehudah to reign. 2 Sixteen years old was he when he began to reign; and he reigned fifty-two years in Yerushalayim: and his mother's name was Yekholyahu of Yerushalayim. 3 He did that which was right in the eyes of the LORD, according to all that his father Amatzyah had done. 4 However the high places were not taken away: the people still sacrificed and burnt incense in the high places. 5 The LORD struck the king, so that he was a leper to the day of his death, and lived in a separate house. Yotam the king's son was over the household, judging the people of the land. 6 Now the rest of the acts of `Azaryah, and all that he did, aren't they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Yehudah? 7 `Azaryah slept with his fathers; and they buried him with his fathers in the city of David: and Yotam his son reigned in his place.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

So Azariah slept with his fathers,.... Or died, when he had reigned fifty two years:

and they buried him with his fathers in the city of David; but not in the sepulchres of the kings, but in the field of the burial, or the burying ground which belonged to them, because he was a leper, 2 Chronicles 26:23. Benjamin of Tudela p places his grave near the pillar of Absalom, and the fountain of Siloah, near the brook Kidron:

and Jotham his son reigned in his stead; who reigned sixteen years; a further account of him, and his reign, we have in the latter part of this chapter, after the reigns of several of the kings of Israel.
