SEV Biblia, Chapter 8:10
envió Toi a Joram su hijo al rey David, a saludarle pacíficamente y a bendecirle, porque había peleado con Hadad-ezer y lo había vencido; porque Toi era enemigo de Hadad-ezer. Y Joram llevaba en su mano vasos de plata, y vasos de oro, y de bronce;
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 10. Then Toi sent Joram his son unto King David , etc.] Who is called Hadoram in ( 1 Chronicles 18:10); though the Syriac and Arabic versions read Joram there: to salute him : to inquire of his welfare after his fatigue in the battles he had had with the Moabites and Syrians, and to wish him all happiness and prosperity for the future: and to bless him ; to congratulate him on his victory, and to wish him success in all after wars he might be engaged in; and particularly to give him thanks for delivering him from so great an enemy as Hadadezer had been to him, as also to bring a present to him, which is sometimes called a blessing; (see Genesis 33:11); because he had fought against Hadadezer, and smitten him ; that is, David had, which had endeared him to Toi: for Hadadezer had wars with Toi ; was an enemy of his, sought to take his kingdom from him, and had had many battles with him: and though he could not conquer him, he sadly harassed him, being too mighty for him: and [Joram] brought with him vessels of silver, and vessels of gold , and vessels of brass ; as a present to David, in gratitude for his deliverance from his enemy by him, and as a token of his homage and subjection to him; at least as a sign that he put himself under his protection, and desired to be his friend and ally. The word “Joram”, though not in the Hebrew text, is rightly supplied; for none else can be supposed to bring the present.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 9-14 - All the precious things David was master of, were dedicated things they were designed for building the temple. The idols of gold Davi destroyed, 2Sa 5:21, but the vessels of gold he dedicated. Thus, in the conquest of a soul by the grace of the Son of David, what stands in opposition to God must be destroyed, every lust must be mortified an crucified, but what may glorify him must be dedicated; thus the property of it is altered. God employs his servants in various ways some, as David, in spiritual battles; others, as Solomon, in spiritual buildings; and one prepares work for the other, that God may have the glory of all.
