Matthew Poole and continuators on 2 Chronicles 24:23

23 And it came to pass at the end of the year , that the host of Syria came up against him: and they came to Judah and Jerusalem, and destroyed all the princes of the people from among the people , and sent all the spoil of them unto the king of Damascus .

So soon did God hear the cry of this holy Prophets blood, and revenge it.

To Hazael the king of that part of Syria called Syria Damascena, from its capital City Damascus.
