This Chapter Verse Commentaries:





where is the king of Hamath? either,



1. Their god, whom he here calls their king, because they looked upon him as their protector and governor, which kings are or should be to their people. Or rather,



2. Their king properly so called. And as before he compared their gods with the God of Jerusalem, so now he compares their kings with king Hezekiah; and by both intends to persuade them, that neither their God nor their king was able to save them out of his hand.



Of Sepharvaim, of Itena, and Ivah; of which See Poole "2Ki_18:31".
