	Joab
		Joab (lit, "Jehovah is his father") was the nephew of King David, the son of Zeruiah in the Bible.
		After David's death Joab supported the claim of Adonijah for the throne over that of Solomon (1 Kings 1:7; 2:28), and for this Solomon ordered his death by the hand of Benaiah (1 Kings 2:29-34), who then replaced him as commander of the army.
		Joab was buried in 'the wilderness' (1 Kings 2:34).

		Joab asked the flsmith who should be killed with such a sword, and the answer was "Joab." With the words "Suppose I am Joab" he slew the smith.
		In the Biblical account of Joab's life the endeavor is palpable to shield David and Solomon, and to paint Joab as a man moved by motives of private revenge, and unscrupulous in the methods of accomplishing his designs.
		Joab was a loyal and willing tool in the hands of his master David; a sturdy, unscrupulous military chieftain, such as surround Asiatic despots and leaders of freebooters.

	Joab - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Joab (יוֹאָב "The LORD is father", Standard Hebrew Yoʾav, Tiberian Hebrew Yôʾāḇ) was the nephew of King David, the son of Zeruiah in the Bible.
		Joab played a pivotal role as the commander of David's forces during Absalom's rebellion.
		Near David's death, he told Solomon to have Joab killed citing Joab's past betrayals and the blood that he was guilty of, and for this Solomon ordered his death by the hand of Benaiah (1 Kings 2:29-34), who then replaced him as commander of the army.

	Joab - International Standard Bible Encyclopedia
		Joab is absent at the time, but returns immediately after Abner's departure, and expostulates with David for not avenging Asahel's death, and at the same time attributes a bad motive to Abner's visit.
		David proclaims his own innocence in the matter, commands Joab as well as the people to mourn publicly for the dead hero (2 Samuel 3:31), composes a lament for Abner, and pronounces a curse upon Joab and his descendants (2 Samuel 3:30 is regarded as an editorial note, and commentators change 2 Samuel 3:39).
		David gets Joab to send Uriah, her husband, to Jerusalem, and when he refuses to break the soldier's vow (11:6-13), Joab is used to procure Uriah's death in the siege, and the general then sends news of it to David (11:14-27).

	Joab - BibleWiki
		When David was dying Joab espoused the cause of Adonijah in preference to that of Solomon.
		Joab first appears after David's accession to the throne on the occasion of the engagement at the pool of Gibeon between Joab and David's servants on one side and Abner with the servants of Ishbosheth on the other (II Sam.
		Joab's loyalty was still more striking when David, yielding to his resentment against him, imprudently transferred the office of commander-in-chief from Joab to Amasa.

	Joab
		Joab proposed that he sell him one of the twelve children; he would thus be relieved of the care of one, and the selling-price could be applied to the better support of the rest.
		Scarcely had his sword touched her, when it was separated from his hand, and his hand could move freely, for the dead woman had been with child, and the blood of the unborn babe loosed the sword.
		As Joab turned to descend from the tower, he noticed that six verses of a Psalm were inscribed on his foot, the first verse running thus: "The Lord answers thee in the day of trouble, the name of the God of Jacob is thy defense." Later David added three verses and completed the Psalm.

	Joab and David
		Joab is normally a very straightforward guy, and is obviously embarrassed by David finding out that the message was from him (2 Samuel 14:22).
		David, recognizing that Joab's commanding abilities were far superior, must have overlooked the killing because he kept Joab as commander-in-chief for the rest of his reign.
		Joab certainly wasn't David's puppet, but they must have been able to work past their differences, because for the most part they worked well as a team, and were effective in killing many people and ruling over all Israel together.

	JOAB
		Joab's actions in preserving the attesting two-part remnant from the pestilence caused by David numbering the people was equally necessary.
		So we see here that when Joab placed blood on his belt and blood on his sandals, prophetically he placed blood on the prophetic word, or in fact the fulfillment thereof, and on efforts to bring forth the fruits of the kingdom.
		While Joab law seems to dictate otherwise, Yahweh is being reminded that the kingdom rights, even the throne of David, must be given to the Solomon Remnant.

		David gets Joab to send Uriah, her husband, to Jerusalem, and when he refuses to break the soldier's vow (2 Samuel 11:6-13), Joab is used to procure Uriah's death in the siege, and the general then sends news of it to David (2 Samuel 11:14-27).
		Joab subsequently opposed David's suggestion of a census, but eventually carried it out (2 Samuel 24:1-9; 1 Chronicles 21:1-6), yet 1 Chronicles 21:6 and 1 Chronicles 27:24 relate that he did not carry it out fully.
		Joab's unswerving loyalty to David leads one to believe that no disloyalty was meant by his support of Adonijah, who was really the rightful heir to the throne.

	Daily Bible Study - Joab
		Joab was a nephew of King David, the son of David's sister Zeruiah.
		Joab's dedication did not extend to his cousin Solomon however; Joab favored David's other son, Adonijah, to succeed David - a botched, but understandable (because Adonijah was the elder brother of Solomon) choice that cost Joab not only his high position in the kingdom, but his life.
		Joab was involved with one of the darkest events of King David's life, the battlefield murder of Uriah the Hittite to cover up David's adultery with Uriah's wife Bathsheba (who later, after she was widowed by David's act of murder, married David and became the mother of King Solomon)

	JOAB
		Instead of performing a study of all the acts of Joab, we will focus on those accounts in which Joab was in direct conflict with David.
		On one occasion, Joab's men were sorely defeating the army of Abner, and in fact had them on the run.
		As Abner left, Joab came back from a raid; and upon finding out about Abner, asked David - "What have you done?" Joab suspected that it was a plot, and despite the intentions of the man Joab, Yahweh Father would use him to carry out His judgment on Abner's rebellion.

		He was called by the almost regal title of "lord," (2 Samuel 11:11) "the prince of the king’s army." (1 Chronicles 27:34) In the entangled relations which grew up in David’s domestic life he bore an important part, successfully reinstating Absalom in David’s favor after the murder of Amnon.
		(2 Samuel 14:1-20) When the relations between father and son were reversed by the revolt of Absalom, Joab remained true to the king, taking the rebel prince’s dangerous life in spite of David’s injunction to spare him, and when no one else had courage to act so decisive a part.
		Joab fled to the shelter of the altar at Gibeon, and was here slain by Benaiah.
