Gill's Notes on the Bible

And Solomon went to Hamathzobah,.... In an hostile manner, which is the only instance of any warlike expedition of Solomon's. This was Coelesyria, which though subdued in the times of David, perhaps rebelled, and now Solomon went forth to reduce it:

and prevailed against it; took it.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Hamath-zobah - Usually identified with the “great Hamath” Amos 6:2; the capital of Coele-Syria; but probably a town of Zobah otherwise unknown, which revolted from Solomon, and was reduced to subjection.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 2 Chronicles 8:3. Hamath-zobah — "Emessa, on the river Orontes." - Calmet.
