jeremiah 49:27 And I will kindle a fire in the wall of Damascus, and it shall consume the palaces of Benhadad.

jeremiah 49:27 "And I shall set fire to the wall of Damascus, And it will devour the fortified towers of Ben-hadad."

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).

jeremiah 49:27 "And I shall set fire to the wall of Damascus, And it will devour the fortified towers of Ben-hadad."
