Notes

Zabad...Jaasiel: These warriors, not mentioned in 2 Samuel 23, came from places east of the Jordan River. David had strong support from all the tribes of Israel and from foreigners.

This story about David's mighty warriors shows that Israel's best and bravest men supported him, along with all of Israel (compare 2 Samuel 23:8–39).
