BAAL-PERAZIM

Location near Jerusalem of a battle in which Israel’s newly anointed King David defeated the Philistines (2 Sm 5:20; 1 Chr 14:11). David named the area Baal-perazim to commemorate the Lord’s “breaking through” his enemies, since the phrase means the “lord of breaking through.” A prophetic reference to a Mt Perazim, where the Lord came “suddenly and in anger,” may recall David’s battle with the Philistines (Is 28:21).
