  From  Easton's  1897  Bible  Dictionary  [easton]: 
 
  Rezon 
  prince,  son  of  Eliadah.  Abandoning  the  service  of  Hadadezer,  the 
  king  of  Zobah,  on  the  occasion  of  his  being  defeated  by  David, 
  he  became  the  "captain  over  a  band"  of  marauders,  and  took 
  Damascus,  and  became  king  of  Syria  (1  Kings  11:23-25;  2  Sam. 
  8:3-8).  For  centuries  after  this  the  Syrians  were  the  foes  of 
  Israel.  He  "became  an  adversary  to  Israel  all  the  days  of 
  Solomon."
