Comentario sobre II Reyes 15:1
בִּשְׁנַ֨ת עֶשְׂרִ֤ים וָשֶׁ֙בַע֙ שָׁנָ֔ה לְיָרָבְעָ֖ם מֶ֣לֶךְ יִשְׂרָאֵ֑ל מָלַ֛ךְ עֲזַרְיָ֥ה בֶן־אֲמַצְיָ֖ה מֶ֥לֶךְ יְהוּדָֽה׃
EN el año veintisiete de Jeroboam, rey de Israel, comenzó á reinar Azarías hijo de Amasías rey de Judá.
Rashi on II Kings
In the twenty-seventh year of Yorovom, etc. Is it possible to say so? Did not Uzziyoh1Azaryoh and Uzziyohu refer to the same person. See below verses 13 and 32. and Yorovom reign simultaneously, as was explained just before? What, then, is the meaning of the verse, ”In the twenty-seventh year of Yorovom … Azaryoh … became king”? That [from that year] he reigned a plagued kingship, [i.e.,] that he was stricken with tzora'as in the twenty-seventh year of his reign.

Metzudat David on II Kings
It is taught in Seder Olam that in the 27th year of Jeraboam, Azariah was afflicted with Leprosy and he reigned an afflicted kingdom. However, the beginning of Azariah's reign began in the same year Jeraboam began to rule. (NOT DONE)
