**1 CHRONICLES CHAPTER 19**
David’s messengers to Hanun are villanously entreated, [1 Chronicles 19:1-5](../../../kjv/1-chronicles/19/1-5).
The Ammonites and Syrians are overcome by Joab and Abishai, [1 Chronicles 19:6-15](../../../kjv/1-chronicles/19/6-15);
by David himself, [1 Chronicles 19:16-19](../../../kjv/1-chronicles/19/16-19).

Of all the contents of this chapter, see the notes on [2 Samuel 10](../../../kjv/2-samuel/10), where we have the same things, and almost the very same words.

**Thirty and two thousand chariots,**i. e. thirty-two thousand men fighting from or with chariots, as that word is elsewhere used; of which see my notes on [1 Samuel 13:5](../../../kjv/1-samuel/13/5). And this interpretation seems the more probable by comparing this place with [2 Samuel 10:6](../../../kjv/2-samuel/10/6), where this army is said to consist of *twenty thousand footmen*, and *twelve thousand men of Ish-tob*; which make up these thirty-two thousand men, who fought partly from chariots, and partly on foot with chariots, or attending upon the chariots, as the ancient manner of fighting was. And here, [1 Chronicles 19:6](../../../kjv/1-chronicles/19/6), this army is made up of *chariots and horsemen*; where, except the *chariots* be understood of footmen, there were no footmen in the army, which is unusual and incredible.

How this agrees with [2 Samuel 10:18](../../../kjv/2-samuel/10/18), see in the notes on that place.
