- 2 Kings 21:18
And Manasseh rested with his fathers and was buried in his palace garden, the garden of Uzza. And his son Amon reigned in his place.
Commentary on 2 Kings 21:182 voices
Garden - Not in the sepulchre of the kings; probably, by his own choice and command, as a lasting testimony of his sincere repentance and abhorrence of himself for his former crime.
John Wesley· Explanatory Notes upon the Old Testament, 1765Evangelical
And Manasseh slept with his fathers,....
John Gill· Exposition of the Old Testament (1748-1763)Reformed
- 2 Kings 21:26
And he was buried in his tomb in the garden of Uzza, and his son Josiah reigned in his place.
Commentary on 2 Kings 21:262 voices
And he was buried in his sepulchre, in the garden of Uzza,.... Where his father Manasseh was buried, 2Ki 21:18, and Josiah his son reigned in his stead; of whom many things are said in the two following chapters.
John Gill· Exposition of the Old Testament (1748-1763)Reformed
The garden of Uzza - The family sepulcher or burying-place. It is said 2Ki 21:3, 2Ki 21:7, that Manasseh made a grove; and he set a graven image of the grove, etc. וישם את פסל האשרה אשר עשה vaiyasem eth pesel haasherah, asher asah: And he put the graven image of Asherah, which he had made, into the house. Asherah, which we translate grove, is undoubtedly the name of an idol; and probably of one which was carved out of wood. R. S.
Adam Clarke· Commentary on the Bible, 1832Evangelical
- 1 Chronicles 6:29
The descendants of Merari:
Commentary on 1 Chronicles 6:292 voices
The sons of Merari; Mahli,.... The posterity of his brother Mushi are omitted; his genealogy is drawn thus, Libni, Shimei, Uzza, Shimea, Haggiah, Asaiah.
John Gill· Exposition of the Old Testament (1748-1763)Reformed
Gershom, &c.--This repetition (see 1Ch 6:1) is made, as the historian here begins to trace the genealogy of the Levitical families who were not priests. The list is a long one, comprising the chiefs or heads of their several families until David's reign, who made a new and different classification of them by courses.

- 1 Chronicles 8:7
Naaman, Ahijah, and Gera, who carried them into exile and who was the father of Uzza and Ahihud.
Commentary on 1 Chronicles 8:71 voice
And Naaman, and Ahiah, and Gera,.... Or, to wit, Naaman, &c. so the words are to be connected with these are the sons or Ehud, in the preceding verse: he removed them; to the above place, that is, either Gera, or rather Ehud, he advised them, directed and enjoined them to go thither, as being most convenient for them: and he begat Uzza and Ahihud; after he had removed his other sons.

- Ezra 2:49
the descendants of Uzza, the descendants of Paseah, the descendants of Besai,
- Nehemiah 7:51
the descendants of Gazzam, the descendants of Uzza, the descendants of Paseah,
Commentary on Nehemiah 7:512 voices
He appointed the porters, singers, and Levites, in their places to their work. This is meant of their work in general, which was to attend the temple service; it had been neglected in some degree, but now was revived. God's worship is the defence of a place, and his ministers, when they mind their duty, are watchmen on the walls.
Matthew Henry· Commentary on the Whole Bible, 1710Puritan
Or perhaps one was the account of them when they set out from Babylon with Zerubbabel, the other when they came to Jerusalem. The sum totals are all just the same there and here, except of the singing-men and singing-women, which there are 200, here 245.
