<p> <strong> REZON </strong> . According to the Heb. text of 1 Kings 11:23-25 , Rezon, son of Eliada, was one of the military officers of that Hadadezer, king of the little realm of [[Zobah]] (cuneiform, <em> Subiti </em> ), S. of [[Damascus]] and not far from the [[Sea]] of Tiberias, whom [[David]] overthrew ( 2 Samuel 8:3 ff.). For some unknown reason he deserted Hadadezer, gathered a band of freebooters, seized Damascus, and founded there the dynasty which created the most powerful of the [[Syrian]] kingdoms. He was a thorn in Solomon’s side, and his successors were bitter adversaries of Israel. Unfortunately, the text presents a suspicious appearance. 1 Kings 11:23-25 a have evidently been interpolated between 1 Kings 11:22 and 1 Kings 11:25 b, and in the best MSS of the LXX [Note: Septuagint.] the story, with some variations, follows 1 Kings 11:14 . In either position it interrupts the course of the narrative, and the best solution of the difficulty is to regard it as a gloss, embodying a historical reminiscence. There is not sufficient evidence for the view maintained by Thenius and Klostermann, that the name should be spelled <em> [[Hezron]] </em> and identified with <strong> [[Hezion]] </strong> ( 1 Kings 15:18 ). </p> <p> J. Taylor. </p>

<p> ''''' rē´zon ''''' ( רזון , <i> ''''' rezōn ''''' </i> ; Ῥάζων , <i> ''''' Rházōn ''''' </i> ): [[Son]] of Eliadah, and a subject of Hadadezer, king of [[Zobah]] ( 1 Kings 11:23 ).

<p> (b) The statement of [[Nicolaus]] of [[Damascus]] (Josephus, Ant. 7:5, 2) that from the time of [[David]] for ten generations the kings of [[Syria]] were one dynasty, each king taking the name of Hadad, "as did the [[Ptolemies]] in Egypt." But this would exclude not only [[Hezion]] and Tabrimoln, but Kezon, unless we may interpret the last sentence to mean that the official title of [[Hadad]] was held in addition to the ordinary name of the king. Bunsen (Bibelwerk, 1, 271) makes Hezion contemporary with Rehoboam, and probably a grandson of Rezon. The name is Aramaic, and Ewald compares it with Rezin. </p>

<p> Re´zon (prince); an officer of Hadadezer, king of Zobah, who established the independence of Damascus, and made it the seat of the kingdom of Damascene-Syria, so often mentioned in the history of the [[Hebrew]] kingdoms [DAMASCUS]. </p>
