Theological / Devotional

Baal-perazim. Literally, “lord of the breaking through” or “possessor of the burstings.” Making a sudden attack upon the Philistines, David broke through their ranks and carried all before him. With the help of the Lord, the forces of Israel burst through the enemy resistance as waters burst through a dam. It was probably after their victory here that they named the place Baal-perazim.
