Who this is

Ozias is the Greek New Testament spelling of Uzziah, used in Matthew's genealogy of Jesus (Matthew 1:8-9), where he is listed as the son of Joram and ancestor of Christ. In the Old Testament, Uzziah reigned as king of Judah for over fifty years and was struck with leprosy after presumptuously burning incense in the temple, a priestly duty reserved for Aaron's line.
