Contextual Overview
8 Rabshakeh returned and found the king of Assyria fighting against Libnah. For he had heard that the king had left Lachish. 9 The king of Assyria was told, "See, King Tirhakah of Cush has come out to fight against you." So he sent men again to Hezekiah, saying, 10 "Tell King Hezekiah of Judah, ‘Do not let your God in Whom you trust lie to you by saying that Jerusalem will not be given into the power of the king of Assyria. 11 You have heard how the kings of Assyria have destroyed all the lands. And will you be saved? 12 Did the gods of those nations which my fathers destroyed save them? Gozan, Haran, Rezeph, and the people of Eden who were in Telassar, were destroyed. 13 Where are the kings of Hamath, Arpad, the city of Sepharvaim, Hena and Ivvah?'" 14 Hezekiah took the letter from the hand of the men from Assyria, and read it. Then he went up to the house of the Lord, and spread the letter out before the Lord. 15 Hezekiah prayed to the Lord, saying, "O Lord the God of Israel, You sit on Your throne above the cherubim. You are the God, and You alone, of all the nations of the earth. You have made heaven and earth. 16 Turn Your ear, O Lord, and hear. Open Your eyes, O Lord, and see. Listen to the words Sennacherib has spoken against the living God. 17 O Lord, it is true that the kings of Assyria have destroyed the nations and their lands.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
:-
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Haran - Harran, the Carrhae of the Greeks and Romans Genesis 11:31, was among the earliest conquests of the Assyrians; being subject to them from the 12th century. Its conquest would have naturally followed that of Gozan (Gauzanitis, 2 Kings 17:6), which lay between it and Assyria proper.
Rezeph - Probably the Rozappa of the Assyrian inscriptions, a city in the neighborhood of Haran.
The children of Eden - Or, “the Beni-Eden,” who appear from the Assyrian inscriptions to have inhabited the country on the east bank of the Euphrates, about the modern Balis. Here they had a city called Beth-Adina, taken by the Assyrians about 880 B.C. This is probably the “Eden” of marginal reference.
Thelasar - Or Telassar. Probably a city on the Euphrates, near Beth-Adina, called after the name of the god Asshur. The name would signify “the Hill of Asshur.”
