How preachers through history handled this text
4 public-domain excerpts on 2 Chronicles 26, from the church fathers to the Puritans.
“As long as Uzziah sought the Lord, and minded religion, God made him to prosper. Those only prosper whom God makes to prosper; for prosperity is his gift. Many have owned, that as long as they sought the Lord, and kept close to their duty, they prospered; but when they forsook God, every thing went cross. God never continues either to bless the indolent or to withhold his blessing from the diligent. He will never suffer any to seek his face in vain. Uzziah's name was famed throughout all the neighbouring countries. …”
— Matthew Henry, Commentary on the Whole Bible (Concise), on 2 Chronicles 26:1–15 (Public Domain)
