Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct Greek equivalents for the proper noun Hadadezer in the Strong's Greek concordance, as it is a specific Hebrew name without a Greek counterpart. However, the narrative involving Hadadezer is part of the broader biblical history that is referenced in the Greek Septuagint, the ancient Greek translation of the Hebrew Bible.

Usage: Hadadezer is a proper noun used as a personal name in the Hebrew Bible. It refers specifically to a king of Zobah, a region in ancient Syria.

Context: Hadadezer was a king of Zobah, a Syrian kingdom located to the north of Israel. He is prominently mentioned in the biblical narrative during the reign of King David. Hadadezer is known for his conflicts with David, as recorded in the books of 2 Samuel and 1 Chronicles.

In 2 Samuel 8:3-12, Hadadezer is described as having gone to restore his control at the Euphrates River, where he was defeated by David. This victory was significant for David as it extended his influence and secured his borders. The text states, "David also defeated Hadadezer son of Rehob, king of Zobah, as he went to restore his control at the Euphrates River" (2 Samuel 8:3, BSB).

The defeat of Hadadezer led to the capture of a large number of chariots, horsemen, and foot soldiers, and David hamstrung all the chariot horses, except for enough to maintain a hundred chariots. This victory also resulted in the acquisition of significant amounts of bronze, which Solomon later used for the temple (1 Chronicles 18:8).

Hadadezer's defeat is further detailed in 1 Chronicles 18:3-8, where it is noted that David took a large amount of gold and bronze from the cities of Hadadezer. The narrative highlights the strategic importance of these victories in establishing David's kingdom and securing peace for Israel.
