Commentary
Gill's Exposition
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, Ch2 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. (p) Itinerar. p. 43.
