SEV Biblia, Chapter 12:28
Junta pues ahora el pueblo que queda, y asienta campamento contra la ciudad, y tómala; para que tomando yo la ciudad, no se llame de mi nombre.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 28. Now therefore gather the rest of the people together , etc.] The rest of the soldiers in the land of Israel, and come to Rabbah: and encamp against the city ; invest it in form: and take it ; upon a surrender or by storm; for it could not hold out long: lest I take the city, and it be called after my name ; so great a regard had Joab, though an ambitious man, to the fame and credit of David his king: so Craterus at the siege of Artacacna, being prepared to take it, waited the coming of Alexander, that he might have the honour of it.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 26-31 - To be thus severe in putting the children of Ammon to slavery was sign that David's heart was not yet made soft by repentance, at the time when this took place. We shall be most compassionate, kind, an forgiving to others, when we most feel our need of the Lord's forgivin love, and taste the sweetness of it in our own souls __________________________________________________________________
