Saint Azariah, son of Oded, prophesied in the days of Asa, king of Judah 1141. On the occasion of the glorious victory of Asa over Zarai, the king of the Ethiopians, Azariah, embraced by the Spirit of God, convinced the king and the people to abandon idolatry and faithfully serve the True God. Excited by the prophecy of Azariah, the king and people rejected idols from all the land of Judah and Benjamin. Many of the Israelis then turned to the True God, and, having gathered in Jerusalem, entered into a covenant with God, making an oath promise never to move away from Him. And God blessed them with lasting peace 1142.
In the 10th century BC.
The story of the prophet Azariah is found in 2 Chronicles 15:1–19.
