Gill's Notes on the Bible

And he sought God in the days of Zechariah,.... Not that Zechariah, the last of the prophets save one, he lived three hundred years after this; nor he that Joash slew; but, as it may seem, a son of his, perhaps the same with him in Isaiah 8:2,

who had understanding in the visions of God: who either had prophetic visions granted to him, or had divine wisdom to interpret such that others had; or, as others think, had a gift of interpreting the prophecies of others, the writings of Moses and David, c. to which the Targum seems to agree which paraphrases it,

"who taught in the fear of the Lord;''

with which agree the Septuagint, Syriac, and Arabic versions; some copies read "in the fear of God"; as an ancient manuscript mentioned by Junius, and so the Talmud l:

and, as long as he sought the Lord, God made him to prosper; in his kingdom, and against his enemies; even so long as he abode by the word, worship, and ordinances of God, of which instances are given, as follow.

l Vid. Buxtorf. Lex. in rad. ראה.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Who had understanding in the visions of God - Another reading, supported by the Septuagint, and some ancient versions, is: “who instructed him in the fear of God.”

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 2 Chronicles 26:5. In the days of Zechariah — Who this was we know not, but by the character that is given of him here. He was wise in the visions of God-in giving the true interpretation of Divine prophecies. He was probably the tutor of Uzziah.
