2 Samuel 10:19

2 Samuel 10:19 -

The kings … served them. It is evident from this that the petty kings of Rehob, Tob, and Maacah had been subject to Hadarezer; they now acknowledged the supremacy of David, and paid to him the tribute which they had previously paid to Zobah, and would be bound to supply him with a contingent of men in case of a war in their neighbourhood. The wars with Damascus and Edom, mentioned in 2 Samuel 8:5 , 2 Samuel 8:13 , probably followed immediately upon Hadarezer's defeat, but are not referred to here, as the interest now centres in David's personal conduct.
