2 Samuel 8:12 Meaning and Commentary

2 Samuel 8:12

Of Syria
Of Syria of Damascus, as distinct from Syriazobah, Hadadezer was king of, after mentioned; this is omitted in ( 1 Chronicles 18:11 ) ;

and of Moab:
who brought him gifts and presents, and were tributaries to him, ( 2 Samuel 8:2 ) ;

and of the children of Ammon;
who very probably joined the Moabites, and were conquered and spoiled at the same time:

and of the Philistines;
when Methegammah was taken from them, ( 2 Samuel 8:1 ) ;

and of Amalek;
for though we have no account of any war of his with that people, since he was king, yet he doubtless had, and had been victorious and spoiled them; see ( Psalms 83:7 ) ;

and of the spoil of Hadadezer, son of Rehob, king of Zobah;
see ( 2 Samuel 8:3-6 ) . These conquests of David, are confirmed by the testimony of Eupolemus, an Heathen writer, who says that he overcame the Syrians by Euphrates, and the Assyrians in Galadene (or Gilead), and the Phoenicians; that he fought against the Idumeans (or Edomites), the Ammonites, Moabites, Ituraeans, Nabathaeans, and Nabdaeans; also against Syron king of Tyre and Phoenicia; all of whom he obliged to pay tribute to the Jews F1.

2 Samuel 8:12 In-Context

10 envi贸 Toi a Joram su hijo al rey David, a saludarle pac铆ficamente y a bendecirle, porque hab铆a peleado con Hadad-ezer y lo hab铆a vencido; porque Toi era enemigo de Hadad-ezer. Y Joram llevaba en su mano vasos de plata, y vasos de oro, y de bronce;
11 los cuales el rey David dedic贸 al SE脩OR, con el oro y la plata que ten铆a dedicado de todas las naciones que hab铆a sometido;
12 de los sirios, de los moabitas, de los ammonitas, de los filisteos, de los amalecitas, y del despojo de Hadad-ezer hijo de Rehob, rey de Soba.
13 Y gan贸 David fama cuando, volviendo de la derrota de los Sirios, hiri贸 dieciocho mil hombres en el valle de la sal.
14 Asimismo puso David guarnici贸n en Edom, por toda Edom puso guarnici贸n; y todos los idumeos fueron siervos de David. Y el SE脩OR guard贸 a David por donde quiera que fue.
