Rezon, the son of Eliada, was an adversary of Solomon, king of Israel (1Ki.11.23). He had fled from his master, Hadadezer, king of Zobah, when David defeated Hadadezer's army (1Ki.11.23-24; 2Sa.8.3-8). Rezon gathered a band of men and became their leader, eventually establishing himself as king in Damascus, the capital of Aram (Syria) (1Ki.11.24). Throughout Solomon's reign, Rezon was an adversary to Israel, causing trouble alongside another of Solomon's adversaries, Hadad the Edomite (1Ki.11.25). The hostility between Rezon and Solomon was likely due to Solomon's control over the trade routes and his expanding influence in the region. The rise of Rezon as king of Aram and his opposition to Israel set the stage for the ongoing conflicts between the two kingdoms in the following centuries, as seen in the accounts of later kings of Israel and Judah.
