When they hit on this name, many scholars' eyes read in this name what their heart really wanted their eyes to read, without putting first their brain into gear: that was nothing less than the name of King Ahab of Samaria... The real man who came to this battle, and the real man behind the name A-ha-ab-bu of Sir-'i-la-a-a, was, according to this author, nobody else but Ben Hadad III of Syria."
