Hamath   Num 34:8; 2Sa 8:9
Arphad   The variation of Arphad and Arpad exists only in the translation; the original being uniformly [ ( )]. Isa 10:9; Jer 49:23; Arpad
Sepharvaim   Calmet is of opinion that Sepharvaim was the capital of the Saspires, who, according to Herodotus, were the only people that inhabited between the Colchians and Medes; and probably the Sarapases, whom Strabo places in Armenia. Hiller considers the name as denoting Sephar of the Parvaim, i.e., Mount Sephar adjacent to the regions of Arabia called Parvaim. But it is more probable, as Wells and others suppose, that Sepharvaim is the [Sipphara] Sipphara, of Ptolemy, the [Sipparenon polis] the city of the Sippareni, mentioned by Abydenus, and probably the Hipparenum of Pliny, a city of Mesopotamia, situated upon the Euphrates, near where it is divided into two arms, by one of which, it is probable, it was divided into two parts. 2Ki 17:24
and have   Isa 10:10,11; 2Ki 17:5-7; 2Ki 18:10-12
