Wesley's Notes

49:27 Ben - hadad - Was the common name of the kings of Syria.

Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Bible Commentary

27. palaces of Ben-hadad-that palace from which so many evils and such cruelty to Israel emanated; thus implying the cause of Damascus' overthrow. Not the Ben-hadad of 2Ki 13:3; Am 1:4; it was a common name of the Syrian kings (compare 1Ki 15:18; meaning "son of Hadad," the idol).

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary

2 Kings 13:3 So the anger of the LORD was kindled against Israel, and He gave them continually into the hand of Hazael king of Aram, and into the hand of Ben-hadad the son of Hazael.
