4 And he did that which was right in the sight of the Lord, according to all that his father Amaziah did.
4 He did what was right in the eyes of the Lord, just as his father Amaziah had done.
4 And he did what was right in the eyes of the Lord, according to all that his father Amaziah had done.
4 He behaved well in the eyes of God, following in the footsteps of his father Amaziah.
4 And he did what was right in the sight of the Lord, according to all that his father Amaziah had done.
4 He did what was pleasing in the Lord 's sight, just as his father, Amaziah, had done.
Matthew Henry's Commentary on 2 Chronicles 26:4
Commentary on 2 Chronicles 26:1-15
(Read 2 Chronicles 26:1-15)
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. A name with God and good people makes truly honourable. He did not delight in war, nor addict himself to sports, but delighted in husbandry.
