King Benhadad of Syria gathered all his troops, and supported by thirty-two other rulers with their horses and chariots, he marched up, laid siege to Samaria, and launched attacks against it.

The attack began at noon, as Benhadad and his thirty-two allies were getting drunk in their tents.

The king of Syria had ordered his thirty-two chariot commanders to attack no one else except the king of Israel.

Human wisdom, brilliance, insight---they are of no help if the LORD is against you.
