Clarke's 2-kings 14:21 Bible Commentary
Took Azariah - He is also called Uzziah, 2 Chronicles 26:1. The former signifies, The help of the Lord; the latter, The strength of the Lord.
Barnes's 2-kings 14:21 Bible Commentary
All the people of Judah - The words imply that the conspiracy was one in which the general mass of the people did not participate. There was no confusion and trouble as on the occasion of the murder of Joash. Azariah ("the strength of Yahweh"), and Uzziah ("whom Yahweh assists"), were mere variants of one name.
Wesley's 2-kings 14:21 Bible Commentary
14:21 Azariah - This Azariah is called Uzziah, chap. 15:30 , both names signifying the same thing for substance; that, God's help; and this, God's strength. But this was not done till twelve years after his father's death: so long the government was in the hands of protectors.
