Where Azaliah appears in Scripture
וַיְהִי בִּשְׁמֹנֶה עֶשְׂרֵה שָׁנָה לַמֶּלֶךְ יֹֽאשִׁיָּהוּ שָׁלַח הַמֶּלֶךְ אֶת-שָׁפָן בֶּן-אֲצַלְיָהוּ בֶן-מְשֻׁלָּם הַסֹּפֵר בֵּית יְהוָה לֵאמֹֽר׃
And it came to pass in the eighteenth year of king Josiah, that the king sent Shaphan the son of Azaliah, the son of Meshullam, the scribe, to the house of the LORD, saying,
וּבִשְׁנַת שְׁמוֹנֶה עֶשְׂרֵה לְמָלְכוֹ לְטַהֵר הָאָרֶץ וְהַבָּיִת שָׁלַח אֶת-שָׁפָן בֶּן-אֲצַלְיָהוּ וְאֶת-מַֽעֲשֵׂיָהוּ שַׂר-הָעִיר וְאֵת יוֹאָח בֶּן-יֽוֹאָחָז הַמַּזְכִּיר לְחַזֵּק אֶת-בֵּית יְהוָה אֱלֹהָֽיו׃
Now in the eighteenth year of his reign, when he had purged the land, and the house, he sent Shaphan the son of Azaliah, and Maaseiah the governor of the city, and Joah the son of Joahaz the recorder, to repair the house of the LORD his God.
