1 Kings 11:15-16
v. 15-17: The reason for Hadad’s anger started during David’s time. David had conquered Edom, and Joab killed many of the men there (2 Samuel 8:14; 1 Kings 11:15-16 a). Hadad, who was a young prince, escaped with some servants to Egypt (1 Kings 11:17 b). They traveled through Midian and Paran before reaching Egypt, where Hadad was welcomed and cared for by Pharaoh. –
