Vers. 12. Haue the gods of the na∣tions deliuered them which my fathers haue destroyed: as Gozan, and Haran, and Rezeph, and the children of Eden which were at Telasser?
13. Where is the King of Hamath, and the King of Arpad, and the King of the Cities of Sepharuaim, Henah, and Iuah?
MEntion is made of Gozan, in 2. King. 17.6. And thence we may garher that it was a Citie of the Medes, although others af∣firme that it was situated in another Coun∣try: but it sufficeth that it stood eastward from Iudeah. Touching Charan, it is often mentioned in the Scriptures. Plinie saith it was a Citie of Arabia: but it is commonly pla∣ced in Mesopotamia. Which is confirmed by Abrahams voyage, who came thence with his father, when he departed out of Caldea: Gen. 11.31. Act. 7.4. The prophane Historiogra∣phers call it Charras in the plurall num∣ber, and say that Crassus and his sonnes were slaine there.
