RABBAH BESIEGED BY JOAB, SPOILED BY DAVID, AND THE PEOPLE TORTURED.
1. at the time when kings go out to battle--in spring, the usual season in ancient times for entering on a campaign; that is, a year subsequent to the Syrian war.
Joab led forth the power of the army, and wasted the country . . . of Ammon--The former campaign had been disastrous, owing chiefly to the hired auxiliaries of the Ammonites; and as it was necessary, as well as just, that they should be severely chastised for their wanton outrage on the Hebrew ambassadors, Joab ravaged their country and invested their capital, Rabbah. After a protracted siege, Joab took one part of it, the lower town or "city of waters," insulated by the winding course of the Jabbok. Knowing that the fort called "the royal city" would soon fall, he invited the king to come in person, and have the honor of storming it. The knowledge of this fact (mentioned in
2Sa 12:26)
enables us to reconcile the two statements--"David tarried at Jerusalem"
(1Ch 20:1),
and "David and all the people returned to Jerusalem"
(1Ch 20:3).

2. 大卫夺了他们王的冠冕……其重一他连得——相当于一百二十五磅。有人认为,Malcom(我们译本作「他们的王」)应视作专有名词米勒公或摩洛——亚扪人的偶像,它自然能承受沉重的重量。但与东方君王的许多其他国冕一样,在拉巴所获的这顶冠冕并非戴在头上,而是以金链悬于宝座之上。
宝石——希伯来文作「宝石」,或一簇宝石,镶在大卫头上。
Originale inglese
2. David took the crown of their king . . ., and found it to weigh a talent of gold--equal to one hundred twenty-five pounds. Some think that Malcom, rendered in our version "their king," should be taken as a proper name, Milcom or Molech, the Ammonite idol, which, of course, might bear a heavy weight. But, like many other state crowns of Eastern kings, the crown got at Rabbah was not worn on the head, but suspended by chains of gold above the throne.
precious stones--Hebrew, a "stone," or cluster of precious stones, which was set on David's head.

3. 用锯锯他们,等——希伯来文「锯他们」一词,与《撒母耳记》平行经文
[2Sa 12:31]
所译的「使他们……」仅末尾一字母之差;许多人认为,使他们服于锯、斧等,不过是说大卫判处拉巴居民从事艰苦的刑罚劳役。

3. cut them with saws, &c.--The Hebrew word, "cut them," is, with the difference of the final letter, the same as that rendered "put them," in the parallel passage of Samuel
[2Sa 12:31];
and many consider that putting them to saws, axes, and so forth, means nothing more than that David condemned the inhabitants of Rabbah to hard and penal servitude.

1Ch 20:1-3.
拉巴被约巴围困、遭大卫劫掠、百姓受刑
1. 到列王出战的时候——即在春天,古时出征战役的通常季节;也就是叙利亚战事之后的一年。
约巴率领军长奋勇攻城,毁坏亚扪……的地——前一次战役因亚扪人雇来的援军而告失利;他们既如此肆意侮辱希伯来使臣,严加惩治既有必要也是正当的,于是约巴蹂躏其国土,并围困其首府拉巴。经过旷日持久的围攻,约巴攻取了其中一部分,即下城或称「水城」,因雅博河蜿蜒的河道而成为孤岛。他知道那座称为「王城」的堡垒不久必落,便请王亲自前来,以享攻取它的荣誉。知道这一事实
(见
2Sa 12:26),
便可调和两处经文的陈述——「大卫仍住在耶路撒冷」
(1Ch 20:1),
与「大卫和众军长都回耶路撒冷去了」
(1Ch 20:3)。
