And Ziklag,.... Another of the cities of Judah; see Gill on Jos 15:31 , and Bethmarcaboth, and Hazarsusah; or Hazarsusim, as in Ch1 4:31 ; the one signifies a chariot
house, and the other a court or stable for horses, which made Bochart conjecture (a), that they were places where Solomon kept his chariots and horses; but it should be observed that these were the names by which these places went in the times of the old Canaanites; and seem to me rather where some of their kings had their horses and chariots; or rather where there were temples dedicated to the horses and chariots of the sun; see Kg2 23:11 . (a) Hierozoic. l. 2. c. 9. col. 158.
