iron horns <01270 07161> [horns of iron.]
Mr. Bruce, in describing the head-dress of the governors of Abyssinia, says, "A large broad fillet was bound upon their forehead, and tied behind their head: in the middle of this was a horn, or conical piece of silver, gilt, about four inches long, much in the shape of our common candle extinguishers. This is called {kirn,} {[keren,]} and is only worn in reviews, or parades after victory." Such, it may be supposed, were the horns of iron which Zedekiah (who appears to have acted the hero returning from a military triumph) made for himself, when he presumed, in the name of Jehovah, to flatter his prince with the promise of victory: "Thus saith the Lord, With these thou shalt push Syria, until they be consumed."

Azariah. Ahaziah, ['chzyhw, <\\See definition 0274\\>,] and Jehoahaz, [yhw'chz <\\See definition 03059\\>,] are essentially the same both in letters and sense, the word [yhw,] {yeho,} or [yh, <\\See definition 03050\\>,] {yah,} being merely transposed: but Azariah, [`zryhw, <\\See definition 05838\\>,] seems to have been a distinct name by which he was known.

2 Chronicles 28:23
offered sacrifices ........................... sacrifice <02076> [For he sacrificed.]
This passage, says Mr. Hallet, greatly surprised me; for the sacred historian is here represented as saying, "The gods of Damascus had smitten Ahaz." But it is impossible to suppose that an inspired author should say this; for the Scripture every where represents the heathen idols as nothing and vanity, and as incapable of doing either good or hurt. All difficulty is avoided if we follow the old Hebrew copies, from which the Greek translation was made: "And king Ahaz said, I will seek to the gods of Damascus which have smitten me."
Damascus <01834> [Damascus. Heb. Darmesek. Because the gods.]
offered sacrifices ....................... helped ..... sacrifice ....... help <02076 05826> [sacrifice to them.]
stumble <03782> [But they were.]
