SATAN, commander of the wicked forces... continue 2nd part

JOSHUA 11 : JABIN ( the name means: one who is intelligent, discerning. ) A dynastic name or title of the Canaanite kings of HAZOR (an enclosure). Hazor, the chief city of the forces of northern Canaan, located about 4 miles (6.4 kilometers) SW of LAKE HULEH (now most drained). Hazor covered an area of approximately 150 acres (61 hectares) accommodating from 25,000 to 30.000 souls.
JABIN the king of HAZOR led the UNITED FORCES of NORTHERN CANAAN against JOSHUA, but suffered A HUMILIATING DEFEAT. HAZOR itself WAS BURNED.

The enemy forces emerged at the same gate during the time of Deborah and Barak. The new powerful king that had his seat in HAZOR, also was named JABIN.

At a later period HAZOR, like GEZER and MEGGIDO, was fortified by King Solomon. Archaeological finds indicate that the GATES of THESE THREE CITIES WERE SIMILAR in their disposition. The GATES HAD BEEN BUILT BY SOLOMON FOLLOWING A SINGLE MASTER PLAN.

Over 200 years after SOLOMON' s death, during the reign of Israelite King PEKAH, the ASSYRIAN
King TIGLATH-PILESER III (means: my trust is the son of Eshara, that is, the god Ninib; or, my trust is the son of the temple Esharra)  conquered HAZOR and carried its inhabitants into EXILE. The king origin and the manner of attaining the kingship lay in the hand of Satan. His reign marked an era of re-
organization, growing expansion and strength that brought the ASSYRIAN EMPIRE to new heights.
The first ASSYRIAN monarch to establish as A DEFINITE POLICY THE MASS DEPORTATION
and TRANSPLANTATION OF CONQUERED PEOPLE TO DIMINISH THEIR POWER and TO
BREAK the SPIRIT OF THE  HEBREW GROUPS and WEAKEN OR ELIMINATE ANY UNITY OF ACTION IN ATTEMPTS TO THROW OFF the ASSYRIAN YOKE.
In time of King AHAZ of Judah, King PEKAH of Israel formed a confederation with King REZIN of Damascus and attacked Judah. The prophet ISAIAH assured that within a short time the two conspiring Kingdoms would be wiped off. God would use the king of Assyria like a "hired razor" to "shave" the
Kingdom of Judah.
The sum of majesty and greatness ascribed to Tiglath-pileser as the "king of kings," reveals the superior
forces that Satan had at his hand.
GOD's purpose as revealed in JESUS CHRIST remained a "SACRED SECRET"(or "mystery")...
kept in silence for long lasting times. For over 4,000 years, since the rebellion in Eden, men of faith had awaited the FULFILLMENT of GOD' s PROMISE of a "SEED" to bruise the head of the serpent like
Adversary and to bring relief to mankind. Finally, when the "full limit of the time arrived, GOD sent forth HIS SON, " and through him REVEALED the meaning of the "SACRED SECRET," gave the definitive answer to the issue raised by GOD' s Adversary (the supreme issue, a moral one), and provided the means for redeemed obedient mankind from SIN and DEATH through the ransom sacrifice of HIS SON.
