And the Ammonites gave gifts to Uzziah: and his name spread abroad even to the entering in of Egypt; for he strengthened himself exceedingly.

Commentary

And the Ammonites gave gifts to Uzziah,.... As tributaries to him, or; how ever, as desirous to live in friendship with him: and his name spread abroad, even to the entering in of Egypt; so far he carried his arms, and conquered the countries that lay between Palestine and Egypt: for he strengthened himself exceedingly; his kingdom and its coasts from the force of enemies.
