  west, between 33ø and 38ø N. lat. and 42ø and 46ø E. long.
  But the Assyrian empire, the bounds of which were different at
  different times, in its most flourishing state, according to

  all the countries and nations between the Mediterranean on the
  west, and the Indus on the east, and between the deserts of
  Scythia on the north, and the Indian ocean on the south.

   * Isa 10:9 Jer 49:23
- Arpad.
- Sepharvaim.
  Calmet is of opinion that Sepharvaim was the capital of the
  Saspires, who, according to Herodotus, were the only people
  that inhabited between the Colchians and Medes; and probably
  the Sarapases, whom Strabo places in Armenia.  Hiller
  considers the name as denoting Sephar of the Parvaim, i.e.,
  Mount Sephar adjacent to the regions of Arabia called Parvaim.
  But it is more probable, as Wells and others suppose, that
  Sepharvaim is the [                ,] Sipphara, of Ptolemy,
  the [               ,] the city of the Sippareni, mentioned by
  Abydenus, and probably the Hipparenum of Pliny, a city of
  Mesopotamia, situated upon the Euphrates, near where it is
  divided into two arms, by one of which, it is probable, it was
  divided into two parts.

   * :3,11
- with their.
   * Isa 33:7; 37:1,2 2Ki 5:7 Ezr 9:3 Mt 26:65
  The history of the invasion of Sennacherib, observes Bp.
  Lowth, and the miraculous destruction of his army, which makes
  the subject of so many of Isaiah's prophecies, is very
  properly inserted here, as affording the best light to many
  parts of these prophecies; and as almost necessary to
  introduce the prophecy in the 37th chapter, being the answer
  of God to Hezekiah's prayer, which could not be properly
  understood without it.  Sennacherib succeeded his father
  Shalmaneser on the throne of Assyria, A.M. 3290, B.C. 714, and
  reigned only about eight years.
