Contextual Overview
14 Then the Lord raised up Hadad the Edomite to become Solomon's enemy. Hadad was from the royal family of Edom. 15 This is how it happened. In the past David fought against Edom. Joab was the commander of David's army. Joab went to Edom to bury his dead soldiers. While there Joab killed all the Edomite men who were still alive. 16 Joab and the men of Israel stayed in Edom for six months until they killed all the men of Edom. 17 At the time Hadad was only a young boy. He and some of his father's servants ran away to Egypt. 18 They left Midian and went to Paran. In Paran some other people joined them and the whole group went to Egypt. They went to Pharaoh, the king of Egypt, and asked for help. Pharaoh gave Hadad a house, some land, and food to eat. 19 Pharaoh liked Hadad so much that he gave Hadad a wife. She was Pharaoh's sister-in-law. (Pharaoh's wife was Queen Tahpenes.) 20 Hadad and the sister of Tahpenes had a son named Genubath. Queen Tahpenes let Genubath grow up in Pharaoh's house with his children. 21 In Egypt Hadad heard that David had died and that Joab, the commander of the army, was dead. So Hadad said to Pharaoh, "Let me go home to my own country." 22 But Pharaoh answered, "I have given you everything you need here. Why do you want to go back to your own country?" Hadad answered, "Please, just let me go home." 23 God also raised up another man to become one of Solomon's enemies. This man was Rezon, son of Eliada. Rezon ran away from his master, King Hadadezer of Zobah.

Hadad: Exodus 2:1-10, 2 Samuel 4:4, 2 Kings 11:2, Matthew 2:13, Matthew 2:14
a little child: Naar katon, rather, "a little boy:" one who was apprehensive of his danger, and could, with his father's servants, make his escape.
Reciprocal: Deuteronomy 11:29 - General
Gill's Notes on the Bible
That Hadad fled,.... While Joab was burying the slain:
he and certain Edomites of his father's servants with him; who either was a king, and these some of his officers and courtiers; or however was of the royal family, and had an equipage, and these some of them:
to go into Egypt; that was their view at first setting out, where they might hope for help, at least shelter:
Hadad being yet a little child; whom his father's servants hid, while Joab was making the slaughter he did, and took the opportunity of fleeing with him while he was burying the dead.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 1 Kings 11:17. Hadad being yet a little child. — × ×¢×¨ ק×× naar katan, a little boy; one who was apprehensive of his danger, and could, with his father's servants, make his escape: not an infant.
