He is most notably recognized for his alliance with Pekah, the king of Israel, against Ahaz, the king of Judah.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>Rezin was the last king of Aram-Damascus, a significant city-state in ancient Syria. During his reign, he formed a coalition with Pekah, the king of Israel, to resist the expanding Assyrian Empire. This alliance led to the Syro-Ephraimite War against Judah, as they attempted to force King Ahaz of Judah into their coalition. The historical context of Rezin's actions is crucial for understanding the geopolitical dynamics of the Near East during the 8th century BCE, a period marked by Assyrian expansion and the resulting political turmoil among smaller states.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>of uncertain derivation<br><span
