Hezion - ancestor of Ben-Hadad, king of Aram (1 Kings 15:18)
This personal name means 'vision' and identifies the grandfather of Ben-Hadad, an Aramean king contemporary with Israel's monarchy. First Kings 15:18 lists him in the genealogy when describing diplomatic relations between Israel and Damascus. Some scholars propose textual emendations based on the Septuagint, but the Masoretic form is retained in most translations.
