Commentary on 2 Chronicles 26:13

Theological / Devotional

An army. The size of the army, 307,500 men, is comparable to the size of Amaziah’s army of 300,000 men (ch. 25:5), but is considerably less than the armies attributed to Asa (ch. 14:8) and Jehoshaphat (ch. 17:14-18).

With mighty power. If Uzziah was the Azriau of the Assyrian inscriptions, he must have been the dominating figure in Western Asia during the reign of Tiglath-pileser III (745-727). See on 2 Kings 14:28.
