דברי הימים א, פרק ג׳, פסוק י״ב

Tracing the unbroken line of succession from father to son often uncovers interesting details about the leaders of the past. As the crown passes down through the generations, historical records sometimes reveal that certain figures held a dual identity and went by more than one name.

The leader documented in this royal sequence as Azariah is actually the well-known King Uzziah. While he is widely recognized as Uzziah throughout much of biblical history, the registry here specifically records his alternate identity [מצודת דוד, ביאור שטיינזלץ]. To maintain the strict accuracy of the royal line, careful attention is given to preserving his exact name as Azariah in this account, correcting older versions of the text that mistakenly altered the name [מנחת שי].
