2 Kings 13:3

3 iratusque est furor Domini contra Israhel et tradidit eos in manu Azahelis regis Syriae et in manu Benadad filii Azahel cunctis diebus

2 Kings 13:3 Meaning and Commentary

2 Kings 13:3

And the anger of the Lord was kindled against Israel
They doing as their kings did:

and he delivered them into the hand of Hazael king of Syria, and into
the hand of Benhadad the son of Hazael, all [their] days;
the word "their" should not be supplied, since it was not true that Israel was delivered into the hands of both those kings of Syria as long as they lived; for they were delivered out of the hands of Benhadad, ( 2 Kings 13:25 ) , but the word "his" should be inserted for it as to be understood of the days of Jehoahaz, see ( 2 Kings 13:22 ) .
