Chronicles On Destruction Of Ammon And The Philistines

Joab led the battalion to smash Ammon.

David took their king’s crown and he placed it upon his head.

“Ammon Is Destroyed”

David removed their king’s crown from his head. He found its weight to be a talent of gold, and in it was a precious stone — and it remained over David’s head. …

He took out the people in it and cut them with saws, with iron threshing boards, and with axes; and this is what David would do to all the cities of the Children of Ammon, and David and all the people returned to Jerusalem.
20:3
… There was a man of [huge] dimensions, whose digits were six for each [hand and foot], making twenty-four; he too was born to the giant.

He ridiculed Israel, …
:7
These were born to the giant in Gath, and they fell by the hand of David and by the hand of his servants.

1 Now it came to pass at the time of the return of the year, at the time when kings go out to battle, that Joab led the power of the army and destroyed the land of the children of Ammon, and he came and besieged Rabbah, and David was dwelling in Jerusalem, and Joab smote Rabbah and destroyed it.
2 And David took the crown of Malkam off his head, and he found it to weigh a talent of silver, and in it was a precious stone, and it was set on David’s head, and the spoils of the city he took out in large quantity.
3 And the people who were in it he brought forth and sawed with a saw and with harrows of iron and with saws, and so did David do to all the cities of the children of Ammon, and David and all the people returned to Jerusalem.
4 Now it came to pass after this that a war arose in Gezer with the Philistines; then Sibbecai the Hushathite smote Sippai of the sons of Rapha, and they were vanquished.
5 And there was another war with the Philistines, and Elhanan the son of Jair smote Lahmi the brother of Goliath the Gittite, and the staff of his spear was as [thick as] a weavers’ beam.
6 And there was another war in Gath, and there was a man of great stature, and his fingers were six and six, totaling twenty-four, and he too was born to Raphah.
7 And he taunted Israel, and Jonathan the son of Shimea, David’s brother, smote him.
8 These were born to Raphah in Gath, and they fell by the hand of David and by the hand of his servants.
