Shalmaneser
살만에셀
Named at 2 Kings 17:3 as king of Assyria: Shalmaneser king of Assyria comes up against Hoshea, “and Hoshea became his servant, and brought him tribute.” 17:4 says, “The king of Assyria discovered a conspiracy in Hoshea; for he had sent messengers to So king of Egypt, and offered no tribute to the king of Assyria, as he had done year by year. Therefore the king of Assyria seized him, and bound him in prison.” 17:5–6 say, “Then the king of Assyria came up throughout all the land, went up to Samaria, and besieged it three years. In the ninth year of Hoshea the king of Assyria took Samaria and carried Israel away to Assyria, and placed them in Halah, and on the Habor, the river of Gozan, and in the cities of the Medes.” The Korean Revised Version names Hoshea at 17:3, where WEB reads “him”, tells at 17:4 what Hoshea did before the king of Assyria saw his betrayal, and names no one at 17:5.
