Contextual Overview

9 And Thoa king of Emath heard that David had smitten the whole force of Adraazar king of Suba. 10 And he sent Aduram his son to king David to ask how he was, and to congratulate him because he had fought against Adraazar, and smitten him; for Thoa was the enemy of Adraazar. 11 And all the golden and silver and brazen vessels, even these king David consecrated to the Lord, with the silver and the gold which he took from all the nations; from Idumaea, and Moab, and from the children of Ammon, and from the Philistines, and from Amalec. 12 And Abesa son of Saruia smote the Idumeans in the valley of Salt, eighteen thousand. 13 And he put garrisons in the valley; and all the Idumaeans became David’s servants: and the Lord delivered David wherever he went. 14 So David reigned over all Israel; and he executed judgment and justice to all his people. 15 And Joab the son of Saruia was over the army, and Josaphat the son of Achilud was recorder. 16 And Sadoc son of Achitob, and Achimelech son of Abiathar, were the priests; and Susa was the scribe; 17 and Banaeas the son of Jodae was over the Cherethite and the Phelethite, and the sons of David were the chief deputies of the king.
