Contextual Overview
1 Then all the people of Judah made Uzziah king in place of his father Amaziah. Uzziah was sixteen years old. 2 He rebuilt the town of Elath and made it part of Judah again after Amaziah died. 3 Uzziah was sixteen years old when he became king, and he ruled fifty-two years in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Jecoliah, and she was from Jerusalem. 4 He did what the Lord said was right, just as his father Amaziah had done. 5 Uzziah obeyed God while Zechariah was alive, because he taught Uzziah how to respect and obey God. And as long as Uzziah obeyed the Lord , God gave him success. 6 Uzziah fought a war against the Philistines. He tore down the walls around their towns of Gath, Jabneh, and Ashdod and built new towns near Ashdod and in other places among the Philistines. 7 God helped Uzziah fight the Philistines, the Arabs living in Gur Baal, and the Meunites. 8 Also, the Ammonites made the payments Uzziah demanded. He was very powerful, so his name became famous all the way to the border of Egypt. 9 Uzziah built towers in Jerusalem at the Corner Gate, the Valley Gate, and where the wall turned, and he made them strong. 10 He also built towers in the desert and dug many wells, because he had many cattle on the western hills and in the plains. He had people who worked his fields and vineyards in the hills and in the fertile lands, because he loved the land.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And Uzziah prepared for them throughout all the host,.... For every soldier in the army:
shields and spears; defensive and offensive weapons, the one to cover and protect their bodies, the other to push and pierce their enemies:
and helmets, and habergeons; the first of these were a covering for the head in the day of battle, and the other coats of mail, to defend the body:
and bows; to shoot arrows out of:
and slings to cast stones; at which the Benjaminites formerly were very expert.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
The sling was used in war by the Assyrians, the Egyptians, the Persians, the Greeks, Romans, and others. Its employment by the Benjamites appears from Judges 20:16, and by the ten tribes, a century before Uzziah, from 2 Kings 3:25.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 2 Chronicles 26:14. Shields, and spears — He prepared a vast number of military weapons, that he might have them in readiness to put into the hands of his subjects on any exigency.
