Introduction
The king of Ammon being dead, David sends ambassadors to comfort his son Hanun, 2 Samuel 10:1 , 2 Samuel 10:2 . Hanun, misled by his courtiers, treats the messengers of David with great indignity, 2 Samuel 10:3-5 . The Ammonites, justly dreading David's resentment, send, and hire the Syrians to make war upon him, 2 Samuel 10:6 . Joab and Abishai meet them at the city of Medeba, and defeat them, 2 Samuel 10:7-14 . The Syrians collect another army, but are defeated by David with great slaughter, and make with him a separate peace, 2 Samuel 10:15-19 .
