2 Kings 18:34

Hamath and Arpad; of which see Jeremiah 49:23. Sepharvaim; of which see 2 Kings 17:21. Hena and Ivah; the names, either,

1. Of idol gods. But why should only these two be named, and not the gods of the other places here mentioned? Or rather,

2. Of cities or countries, as is manifest from 2 Kings 19:13, where those words are repeated among other places, whose kings are there mentioned, and where they are rendered, of Hena and Ivah, as they should be here also, the words in the Hebrew being the very same. Have they delivered Samaria? i.e.

1. Either the gods here mentioned, which, together with other idols, were worshipped in Samaria. Or,

2. Their gods; which is easily understood from the foregoing words.
