2 Kings 16:7-9
_ _ So Ahaz sent messengers to Tiglath-pileser — In spite of the assurance given him by Isaiah by two signs, the one immediate, the other remote (Isaiah 7:14; Isaiah 8:4), that the confederate kings would not prevail against him, Ahaz sought aid from the Assyrian monarch, to purchase which he sent the treasures of the palace and temple. Tiglath-pileser marched against Damascus, slew Rezin the king, and carried the people of Damascus into captivity to Kir, which is thought to have been the city Karine (now Kerend), in Media. |
2 Kings 16:7
Sent messengers, &c. — But was it because there was no God in Israel, that he sent to the Assyrian for help? The sin itself was its own punishment; for tho' it served his present turn, yet he made but an ill bargain, seeing he not only impoverished himself, but enslaved both himself and his people. |

Then he said, Go ye, bring him. Then Benhadad came forth to him; and he caused him to come up into the chariot.
