Uzziah

ISAIAH 6

v1+2 - talking of God's glory
seraphim praising God
wings described a bit like cherubims

protection
covering --> King + Priest - Melchizedek
movement --> Points to Jesus due to prophecy throughout chapter
care

Lord = King

UZZIAH (king of Judah)

Isaiah 6 - during Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, Hezekiah (Isaiah 1)
- to do with prophet Isaiah
- reference to Uzziah - how/why?

v5 - acknowledging his + people's sinfulness

BUT has seen the king - the LORD of Hosts v1+v2

No man can see God + live - Isaiah thinks he will die

UZZIAH significance at start of chapter - UZZIAH = AZARIAH

Uzziah thought he was King + Priest
2Chron 26
Uzziah - 16 restored Judah
reigned 52 yrs (v3)
v4- overall description = good

v6 live coal symbol of sins forgiven (??)
Isaiah - see vision - acknowledges sin - forgiven

Jesus v9,v10
(5 references in NT to this prophecy fulfilled - Luke 8v10 one of them)

Zechariah = influence for good
when Uzziah = faithful
God with him
when strong heart lifted up like Nebechudnezzer v16
Uzziah did it for own glory unlike David, Solomon etc
Korah, Dathan, Abiram's censors beaten into plates on the inscense altar

Uzziah died a leper due to pride

leper = sin

v1 - in the year sin (Uzziah the leper) died, God ruled

KINGDOM

sorry for the randomness of the notes =)
