Ben Hadad (son of Hazael)
벤하닷 (하사엘의 아들)
Named at 2 Kings 13:3 as the son of Hazael: the LORD delivered Israel “into the hand of Hazael king of Syria, and into the hand of Benhadad the son of Hazael, continually.” 13:24 says, “Hazael king of Syria died; and Benhadad his son reigned in his place.” 13:25 says, “Jehoash the son of Jehoahaz took again out of the hand of Benhadad the son of Hazael the cities which he had taken out of the hand of Jehoahaz his father by war. Joash struck him three times, and recovered the cities of Israel.” The Korean Revised Version reads 그 아들 벤하닷, his son Benhadad, at 13:3; at 13:25 it reads 두어 성읍, a few cities, which 자기 부친 여호아하스가 전쟁 중에 빼앗겼던 것이라, his father Jehoahaz had lost in the war, and names Benhadad where WEB says “him” (요아스가 벤하닷을 세번 쳐서).

1In the twenty-third year of Joash the son of Ahaziah, king of Judah, Jehoahaz the son of Jehu began to reign over Israel in Samaria for seventeen years.
2He did that which was evil in the LORD’s sight, and followed the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, with which he made Israel to sin. He didn’t depart from it.
3The LORD’s anger burned against Israel, and he delivered them into the hand of Hazael king of Syria, and into the hand of Benhadad the son of Hazael, continually.
4Jehoahaz begged the LORD, and the LORD listened to him; for he saw the oppression of Israel, how the king of Syria oppressed them.
5(The LORD gave Israel a savior, so that they went out from under the hand of the Syrians; and the children of Israel lived in their tents as before.
6Nevertheless they didn’t depart from the sins of the house of Jeroboam, with which he made Israel to sin, but walked in them; and the Asherah also remained in Samaria.)
7For he didn’t leave to Jehoahaz of the people any more than fifty horsemen, and ten chariots, and ten thousand footmen; for the king of Syria destroyed them and made them like the dust in threshing.
8Now the rest of the acts of Jehoahaz, and all that he did, and his might, aren’t they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
9Jehoahaz slept with his fathers; and they buried him in Samaria; and Joash his son reigned in his place.

22Hazael king of Syria oppressed Israel all the days of Jehoahaz.
23But the LORD was gracious to them, and had compassion on them, and favored them because of his covenant with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and would not destroy them and he didn’t cast them from his presence as yet.
24Hazael king of Syria died; and Benhadad his son reigned in his place.
25Jehoash the son of Jehoahaz took again out of the hand of Benhadad the son of Hazael the cities which he had taken out of the hand of Jehoahaz his father by war. Joash struck him three times, and recovered the cities of Israel.
