Strong's Lexicon Uzziyyah or Uzziyyahu: Uzziah or Azariah Original Word: עֻזִּיָּה Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew root עֹז (oz), meaning "strength" or "power," combined with יָהּ (Yah), a shortened form of Yahweh, the name of God. Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for Uzziah in the Strong's Greek Dictionary, as it is a Hebrew proper name. However, the Septuagint, the Greek translation of the Hebrew Bible, uses the name Οζίας (Ozias) for Uzziah. Usage: The name Uzziyyah or Uzziyyahu means "Yahweh is my strength" or "The LORD is my strength." It is used as a personal name in the Hebrew Bible, most notably for a king of Judah. Cultural and Historical Background: Uzziah was a king of Judah who reigned in the 8th century BCE. His reign is noted for its military strength, economic prosperity, and architectural achievements. However, his pride led to his downfall when he unlawfully entered the temple to burn incense, resulting in God striking him with leprosy. Uzziah's reign is documented in 2 Kings 15 and 2 Chronicles 26. His account reflects the themes of divine blessing and judgment, emphasizing the importance of obedience to God's laws.
