Two distinctive portraits of Uzziah emerge, one within the Masoretic tradition and another in the Syriac Peshitta. The present article aims to explore these portraits in order to demonstrate the shape of each portrait of Uzziah in light of Jotham and to determine what these portraits reveal about the nature of the textual transmission of the account of Uzziah in Chronicles.
