Azariah son of Jeroham was one of the commanders of units of a hundred during the reign of Athaliah in Judah. He was part of a group of military leaders who entered into a covenant with Jehoiada the priest to overthrow the usurping Queen Athaliah and crown Joash, the rightful heir, as king (2 Chronicles 23:1). The text identifies Azariah as one of the captains who allied with Jehoiada, but does not provide further details about his background or specific role in the events that followed.
