John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

2 Samuel 5:20

Baal — perazim — Whither the Philistines were come from the valley of Rephraim, 1 Chronicles 14:11. Baal — perazim, signifies the master of the breaches: So he ascribes all to God. As waters — As floods or rivers of waters, which break the banks, and overflow a land, and overturn all that stands in their way.
