Lièwángjìxià 16:9 Meaning and Commentary

2 Kings 16:9

And the king of Assyria hearkened unto him
Complied with his request:

for the king of Syria went up against Damascus, and took it;
the metropolis of the kingdom of Syria, and so made a powerful diversion in favour of the king of Judah:

and carried the people of it captive to Kir;
not Cyrene, as the Vulgate Latin version, a country belonging to Egypt, which the king of Assyria had no power over; but a place in upper Media, as Josephus ^F16 relates, which belonged to the Assyrian king; see ( Isaiah 22:6 ) , compared with ( 2 Kings 21:2 ) , of this captivity Amos had prophesied some time before, ( Amos 1:5 )

and slew Rezin;
the king of Syria, which also was foretold in the same prophecy.
