While David was king of Israel, he won many battles over the Philistines. He brought them under his control. He took Metheg Ammah away from them. David also won the battle over the people of Moab. He made them lie down on the ground. Then he measured them off with a piece of rope. He put two-thirds of them to death. He let the other third remain alive. So the Moabites were brought under David's rule. They gave him the gifts he required them to bring him. David fought against Hadadezer, the son of Rehob. Hadadezer was king of Zobah. He had gone to take back control of the land along the Euphrates River. David captured 1,000 of Hadadezer's chariots, 7,000 chariot riders and 20,000 soldiers on foot. He cut the legs of all but 100 of the chariot horses. The Arameans of Damascus came to help Hadadezer, the king of Zobah. But David struck down 22,000 of them. He stationed some soldiers in the Aramean kingdom of Damascus. The people of Aram were brought under his rule. They gave him the gifts he required them to bring him. The Lord helped David win his battles everywhere he went. David took the gold shields that belonged to the officers of Hadadezer. He brought the shields to Jerusalem. He took a huge amount of bronze from Tebah and Berothai. Those towns belonged to Hadadezer. Tou was king of Hamath. He heard that David had won the battle over the entire army of Hadadezer. So Tou sent his son Joram to King David. Joram greeted David. He praised him because he had won the battle over Hadadezer. Hadadezer had been at war with Tou. So Joram brought with him articles that were made out of silver, gold and bronze. King David set those articles apart for the Lord. He had done the same thing with the silver and gold he had taken from the other nations he had brought under his control. Those nations were Edom, Moab, Ammon, Philistia and Amalek. He also set apart for the Lord what he had taken from Hadadezer, the son of Rehob. Hadadezer was king of Zobah. David returned after he had struck down 18,000 men of Edom in the Valley of Salt. He became famous for doing it. He stationed some soldiers all through Edom. The whole nation of Edom was brought under his rule. The Lord helped David win his battles everywhere he went. David ruled over the whole nation of Israel. He did what was fair and right for all of his people. Joab, the son of Zeruiah, was commander over the army. Jehoshaphat, the son of Ahilud, kept the records. Zadok, the son of Ahitub, was a priest. Ahimelech, the son of Abiathar, was also a priest. Seraiah was the secretary Benaiah, the son of Jehoiada, was commander over the Kerethites and Pelethites. And David's sons were royal advisers.

What were the Israelites called in Egypt?
We have relatively extensive documentary evidence of life in ancient Egypt during the time the Israelites supposedly lived there, but never were the Israelites ever mentioned or referred to. In all the royal records and documents, letters, business contracts and the like, no Egyptian ever mentioned a race of slaves among them, nor were Joseph or Moses ever mentioned, in spite of their supposedly quite significant impact on Egyptian rule. If the Israelites were ever in Egypt, the Egyptians give us no hint as to what they were called. The earliest mention of Israel or Israelites outside the Bible, and the only mention of Israel in Egyptian records, is the Merneptah Stela which describes the defeat of the Israelites around 1210 BCE: "Israel is laid waste, its seed is not." The Stela also describes the defeat by Egypt of Canaanite cities and places Israel in the probable context of a backward, rural community.
