Jotham, son of Uzziah, was a king of Judah and the father of Ahaz, who succeeded him (758 BC–742 BC). He is named in the Book of Mormon only through Isaiah, whose writings Nephi included on the plates of brass. In the days of Ahaz the son of Jotham, Rezin king of Syria and Pekah king of Israel marched against Jerusalem but could not take it (2 Nephi 17:1).
