Contextual Overview

¹⁴ The Lord caused Hadad the Edomite, a member of the family of the king of Edom, to become Solomon's enemy. ¹⁵ Earlier, David had defeated Edom. When Joab, the commander of David's army, went into Edom to bury the dead, he killed all the males. ¹⁶ Joab and all the Israelites stayed in Edom for six months and killed every male in Edom. ¹⁷ At that time Hadad was only a young boy, so he ran away to Egypt with some of his father's officers. ¹⁸ They left Midian and went to Paran, where they were joined by other men. Then they all went to Egypt to see the king, who gave Hadad a house, some food, and some land. ¹⁹ The king liked Hadad so much he gave Hadad a wife—the sister of Tahpenes, the king's wife. ²⁰ They had a son named Genubath. Queen Tahpenes brought him up in the royal palace with the king's own children. ²¹ While he was in Egypt, Hadad heard that David had died and that Joab, the commander of the army, was dead also. So Hadad said to the king, "Let me go; I will return to my own country." ²² "Why do you want to go back to your own country?" the king asked. "What haven't I given you here?" "Nothing," Hadad answered, "but please, let me go." ²³ God also caused another man to be Solomon's enemy—Rezon son of Eliada. Rezon had run away from his master, Hadadezer king of Zobah.

Hadad: 1 Kings 2:10, 1 Kings 2:34, Exodus 4:19, Matthew 2:20

Let me depart: Heb. Send me away, Genesis 45:24, Joshua 2:21, 1 Samuel 9:26, 2 Samuel 3:21

Reciprocal: 1 Kings 22:40 - slept

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And when Hadad heard in Egypt that David slept with his fathers,.... Was dead and buried, as the death of princes is soon known in other countries, and especially a king of such fame as David:

and that Joab the captain of the host was dead: whose name might be terrible to Hadad, because of the slaughter of men he had made in his country:

Hadad said unto Pharaoh, let me depart, that I may go to mine own country; with a view and an hope to recover it, now David and Joab were dead.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

That Hadad should wait for the death of Joab before requesting leave to return to Idumaea shows how terrible an impression had been made by the severe measures which that commander had carried out twenty-five or thirty years previously 1 Kings 11:16. The inability of refugees to depart from an Oriental court without the king’s leave, and his unwillingness ordinarily to grant leave, are illustrated by many passages in the history of Persia.
