2 Kings 8:21
"So Joram went over to Zair, and all the chariots with him: and he rose by night, and smote the Edomites which compassed him about, and the captains of the chariots: and the people fled into their tents."

Commentary

Gill's Exposition

So Joram went over to Zair,.... A city in Edom, the same with the Zaara of Ptolemy (i); some take it to be the same with Seir, the mountain or

country of that name: and all the chariots with him; all the chariots of war he had: and he rose by night, and smote the Edomites which compassed him about; who came out of their cities in great numbers, and surrounded him, he having entered into their country in an hostile way, to subdue them: and the captains of the chariots: which belonged to the Edomites; those he smote, Ch2 21:9 . and the people fled into their tents; the army being routed. (i) Geograph. l. 5. c. 17.
