This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Bethuel the Syrian of Padan-aram; either of the country of Syria, as it is called, Hos_12:12; or rather, Padan of Syria; or, as the Septuagint and Chaldee render it, Mesopotamia of Syria. For that Parian is the proper name of a place, may be gathered from Gen_48:7, and it is so called from its situation between two rivers, for Padan signifies a pair or two.
