Rezin, king of Aram-Damascus who allied with Pekah against Judah in the Syro-Ephraimite crisis
The name of the last independent king of Aram-Damascus, whose fateful alliance with Pekah of Israel against Judah triggered one of the Old Testament's most consequential prophetic moments. When Rezin and Pekah marched on Jerusalem to replace Ahaz with a puppet king, the terrified Judean court received Isaiah's Immanuel prophecy — 'the Lord himself will give you a sign' (Isa 7:1–14). Ahaz instead appealed to Assyria; Tiglath-pileser III responded by conquering Damascus and killing Rezin (2 Kgs 16:9), ending centuries of Aramean independence.

1. Rezin (proper name) — The proper name of the king of Aram-Damascus during the Syro-Ephraimite crisis (c. 735 BC), who allied with Pekah son of Remaliah against Judah's King Ahaz (2 Kgs 15:37; 16:5–9; Isa 7:1, 4, 8; 8:6; 9:11). His campaign prompted Isaiah's Immanuel sign. Tiglath-pileser III of Assyria defeated him and captured Damascus. The name also appears among the Nethinim (temple servants) returning from exile (Ezra 2:48; Neh 7:50). Spanish 'Resín,' Korean 르신, and Arabic رَصِينَ all transliterate the same proper noun. 11×
