Contextual Overview
1 After this David won the war against the Philistines and put them under his power. He took Gath and its towns from the Philistines. 2 He won the war against Moab. And the Moabites were made to work for David, bringing taxes to him. 3 David won the war against King Hadadezer of Zobah as far as Hamath, as he went to bring his power to the Euphrates River. 4 David took from him 1,000 war-wagons, 7,000 horsemen, and 20,000 foot soldiers. And he cut the legs of all but 100 war-wagon horses. 5 The Syrians of Damascus came to help King Hadadezer of Zobah. But David killed 22,000 of the Syrian men. 6 Then David put soldiers in Syria of Damascus. And the Syrians became servants to David, paying taxes. The Lord helped David in every place he went. 7 David took the battle-coverings of gold which were carried by Hadadezer's servants, and brought them to Jerusalem. 8 He took a very large amount of brass from Hadadezer's cities, Tibhath and Cun. This was the brass Solomon used to make the brass pool, the pillars, and the brass pots.
