We're Going to Get You Back for Making Us Leave like That

And it came to pass after this, that the king of the children of Ammon died, and Hanun his son reigned in his stead. Then said David, I will shew kindness unto Hanun the son of Nahash, as his father shewed kindness unto me. And David sent to comfort him by the hand of his servants for his father. And David's servants came into the land of the children of Ammon. And the princes of the children of Ammon said unto Hanun their lord, Thinkest thou that David doth honour thy father, that he hath sent comforters unto thee? hath not David rather sent his servants unto thee, to search the city, and to spy it out, and to overthrow it? Wherefore Hanun took David's servants, and shaved off the one half of their beards, and cut off their garments in the middle, even to their buttocks, and sent them away.-2 Samuel 10:1-4***Hanun was king of the Ammonites. David was the 2nd king to reign over all of the Israelites in the Promised Land. The Israelites descended from Abraham (Abram the Hebrew) and Sarah (Sarai), their son Isaac and his wife Rebekah, Isaac and Rebekah's youngest fraternal twin son Jacob (Israel) and his wives Leah and Rachel and maidservants Bilhah and Zilpah, and the 12 sons born to them. The Ammonites descended from Abraham and Sarah's nephew Lot and Lot's youngest daughter and the son, Ben-ammi, born to Lot and his daughter. Over 300 years after Joshua led his fellow Israelites across the divinely parted Jordan River and onto the Promised Land, King Nahash and his fellow Ammonites prepared to attack the Israelites. Saul, from the tribe of Jacob and Rachel's 2nd and last son Benjamin, became the 1st king to reign over the Israelites. David, from the tribe of Jacob and Leah's 4th born son Judah, was the 2nd king to reign over all of the Israelites. There was apparently no hostility between Hanun's father and David. Moreover, Zelek the Ammonite was a mighty warrior who fought alongside David's other mighty men. David's great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-grandson Jotham was the 10th king to rule Judah, the southern nation in the Promised Land. Over 700 years after Jotham reigned and the Israelites fought their last battle against the Ammonites, Jesus the Christ, the Son of God, was born. Jesus was conceived of the Holy Spirit in the womb of Mary, a virgin, and Jesus was born into the tribe of Judah to Mary and her husband Joseph when Mary was a virgin.-Genesis 11:26-50:26, Exodus, Numbers 20:1-29, 27:12-23, Deuteronomy 31:1-30, 32:44-52, 34:1-12, Joshua 1:1-4:24, 23:1-24;33, Judges 1:1-3:31, 10:1-12:15, Ruth, 1 Samuel, 2 Samuel, 1 Kings, 2 Kings, 1 Chronicles 1:1-34, 2:1-17, 3:1-24, 7:20-29, 8:1-40, 9:35-29:30, 2 Chronicles, Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, Acts 1:1-26
