lord of breaches, where Jehovah broke forth on David's enemies, the Philistines, as a breach ("bursting forth") of waters (2Sa 5:20; 1Ch 14:11). Compare Isa 28:21, "Mount Perazim"; once the idol Baal's high place, henceforth it was to be noted for Jehovah's bursting forth on David's idolatrous foes.
So David came to Baal-perazim and defeated them there; and he said, "The LORD has broken through my enemies before me like the breakthrough of waters." Therefore he named that place Baal-perazim.

For the LORD will rise up as at Mount Perazim, He will be stirred up as in the valley of Gibeon, To do His task, His unusual task, And to work His work, His extraordinary work.
