Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible

1 Chronicles 18

Clinging to a Counterfeit Cross
Verses 1-17

1 Chronicles 18:1-17. David's Wars (see notes on 2 Samuel 8).—Gath and her towns: lit. "and her daughters"; in 2 Samuel 8:1 the words "the bridle of the mother city" are probably corrupt.

1 Chronicles 18:17. the sons of David were chief about the king: the words in 2 Samuel 8:18, "and David's sons were priests," were altered by the Chronicler, who held that only the descendants of Aaron could be priests.
