Jer. 41:12• 12Then they took all the men, and went to fight with Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, and found him by the great waters that are in Gibeon. (Jer. 41:12)
• Joab, an ambitious man, seeks to advance in the world and to win the first place in the kingdom. Though he is not named―with just cause―among "David's mighty men," he is a man of courage. He can appreciate righteousness and unrighteousness, but he does not oppose unrighteousness except when it runs counter to his personal designs; and when something righteous runs contrary to his interests he suppresses it. Nothing stops him; he has no scruples in satisfying his ambition. Someone has said of him: "We find Joab wherever there is evil to do or much to gain." Joab is a figure of political flesh. (“Hebron: 2 Samuel 2” by H.L. Rossier)
