Gill's Notes on the Bible
When he was strong,.... Became great and powerful, through his victories, the enlargement of his dominions, and having a numerous army, and these well accoutred, and many fortified cities and towers:
his heart was lifted up to his destruction; he grew vain and proud, elated with his flourishing circumstances, which issued in his ruin:
for he transgressed against the Lord his God; who had helped him, and made him so great, and had bestowed so many favours upon him; the Targum is,
"the Word of the Lord his God;''
what his transgression was, follows:
and went into the temple of the Lord; the holy place, into which none but the priests might enter:
to burn incense upon the altar of incense; which stood there.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
To his destruction - Rather, “to do wickedly.” Uzziah appears to have deliberately determined to invade the priest’s office (marginal reference “m”), thus repeating the sin of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram Numbers 16:1-35.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 2 Chronicles 26:16. He transgressed against the Lord — "He sinned against the WORD of the Lord his God." - T.
Went into the temple to burn incense — Thus assuming to himself the priest's office. See this whole transaction explained in the notes on 2 Kings 15:5.
