2 CHRON 25-26
THE PRIESTS DID NOT ALLOW UZZIAH TO BURN INCENSE AND INCENSE AND HE WAS ANGRY. WHAT TO HIM AND WHY?

this question was brought to me

MY RESPONSE

The fathers shall not be put to death for their children, nor shall the children be put to death for their fathers, but a person shall die for his own sin.-2 Chron 25 part of verse 4. This is a perfect example of like father;like son but each paid for their own sin.


UZZIAH WAS THE SON OF Amaziah and both died for his own sin.
As for Uzziah sin, it is not for you Uzziah, to burn incense to the Lord, but for the priest's, the sons of Aaron, who are consecrated to burn incense get out sanctuary, for you have trespassed! You shall have no humor from the Lord God." Then Uzziah became furious; and he had a censor in his hand to burn intense.


And while he was angry with the priests, leprosy broke out on his forehead, before the priest all the priests looked at him and there, on his forehead, before the priests in the house of the Lord, beside the incense altar.  and Azariah the chief priest and all the priests looked at him and there, on his foreword, he was leprous, so they thrust him out of that place. Indeed he also hurried to get out, because the Lord had struck him.


King Uzzziah was a leper until the day of his death. He dwelt in an isolated house, because he was a leper; for he was cut off from the house of the lord than Jotham his son was over the kings house, judging the people of the land. 2 Chron 26:18-21


So Uzziah rested with his fathers, and they buried him with his fathers in the field of burial which belonged to the kings, for they said, "He is a leper." then Jotham his son reigned in his place. -2 Chron 26:23
