This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
eighteen thousand. This was Abishai's command. In 2Sa_8:13 we have David's command; while in Psa 60 (title, Psa_60:1) we have Joab's share in the campaign (1Ki_11:16). There is no contradiction, but independent and separate exploits. Abishai's number was 18,000. We do not know how long Abishai's took him. Joab's (which took him six months longer) was 10,000.
