1 CHRONICLES 18:10 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“He sent Hadoram his son to king David, to enquire of his welfare, and to congratulate him, because he had fought against Hadarezer, and smitten him; (for Hadarezer had war with Tou;) and with him all manner of vessels of gold and silver and brass.”
he sent his son Hadoram to King David, to greet him and to congratulate him on his victory over Hadadezer; for Hadadezer had often been at war with Tou. Hadoram brought with him all sorts of articles of gold, silver, and bronze — Hamath's submission and gift-giving formalize vassalage. Hebrew 'shach' (bow/greet) and congratulations represent tribute-exchange. Gift's inclusiveness demonstrates obeisance.
