The conduct of the filing of Hamath was political enough, in sending his son to congratulate David. But Reader! pass over the congratulations made by the king of Hamath, to attend to an infinitely higher subject: and behold God our Father sending his only begotten Son, that we may be at peace with him. 2 Corinthians 5:20.
1 Chronicles 18:7-10
7 And David took the shields of gold that were on the servants of Hadarezer, and brought them to Jerusalem.
8 Likewise from Tibhath,d and from Chun, cities of Hadarezer, brought David very much brass, wherewith Solomon made the brasen sea, and the pillars, and the vessels of brass.
9 Now when Toue king of Hamath heard how David had smitten all the host of Hadarezer king of Zobah;
10 He sent Hadoramf his son to king David, to enquire of his welfare, and to congratulate him, because he had fought against Hadarezer, and smitten him; (for Hadarezer had war with Tou;) and with him all manner of vessels of gold and silver and brass.
