14 Ug sa diha nga ang mga anak sa Ammon nakakita nga ang mga Siriahanon nangalagiw, sila usab nangalagiw sa atubangan ni Abisai, ug mingsulod ngadto sa ciudad. Unya si Joab mipauli gikan sa mga anak sa Ammon, ug miadto ngadto sa Jerusalem.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And when the children of Ammon saw that the Syrians were fled,.... In whom they put great confidence:

then they fled also before Abishai; without engaging at all with him, as it seems:

and entered into the city; out of which they came, either Rabbah or Medeba, for their safety:

so Joab returned from the children of Ammon; did not stay to lay siege to their city, the season of the year not being proper for it, winter drawing near; see 2 Samuel 11:1;

and came to Jerusalem; in triumph, to report to David the victory he had obtained.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Joab returned - The great strength of Rabbah made it hopeless to take it by assault, and the Syrians were not sufficiently broken 2 Samuel 10:15 to make it safe to undertake a regular siege.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 2 Samuel 10:14. The Syrians were fled — They betook themselves to their own confines, while the Ammonites escaped into their own city.
