2 Kings 15:7

2Ki 15:7 So Azariah slept with his fathers; and they buried him with his fathers in the city of David: and Jotham his son reigned in his stead.

Ver. 7. So Azariah slept, &c. ] When this king died, the Philistines rejoiced, because "the rod of him that smote them was broken." But "out of the serpent’s root came forth a cockatrice" - Hezekiah - "and his fruit was a fiery, flying serpent" (Isaiah 14:29 , with 2Ch 26:6-7 ). He stung them worse than his grandfather had done.

And they buried him, &c. ] In some by-corner of the king’s burial place, "for they said, He is a leper." 2Ch 26:23
