1 verse

2 Chronicles

2 Chronicles 8:3

And Solomon went to Hamathzobah, and prevailed against it.

From Easton's Bible Dictionary

Matthew George Easton, 1897

Fortress of Zobah, (2 Chr. 8:3) is supposed by some to be a different place from the foregoing; but this is quite uncertain.

From Smith's Bible Dictionary

William Smith, 1884

(fortress of Zobah), (2 Chronicles 8:3) has been conjectured to be the same as Hamath. But the name Hamath-Zobah would seem rather suited to another Hamath which was distinguished from the "Great Hamath" by the suffix "Zobah."
