Gill's Notes on the Bible

And when David heard of [it],.... Of the preparation made by the Ammonites to fight with him:

he sent Joab and all the host of the mighty men: he sent out Joab his general, and an army under his command, consisting of men of strength, valour, and courage; or all the host and the mighty men, as Kimchi and Ben Melech, the famous mighty men mentioned in 2 Samuel 23:8; he did not think it advisable to wait for the Ammonites, but carried the war into their own country, and, instead of suffering them to invade his dominions, he invaded theirs.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

This sufficiently indicates the greatness of the danger to Israel from this formidable league of Ammonites and Syrians.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 2 Samuel 10:7. All the host of the mighty — All his worthies, and the flower of his army.
