4-6 David and all Israel went to Jerusalem (it was the old Jebus, where the Jebusites lived). The citizens of Jebus told David, "No trespassing—you can't come here." David came on anyway and captured the fortress of Zion, the City of David. David had said, "The first person to kill a Jebusite will be commander-in-chief." Joab son of Zeruiah was the first; and he became the chief.
I find this interesting. Saw JUST died for disobeying the RULE and GOD but David broke the rules. The citizens of Jebus said no tress passing but David went ahead and went in. Now you'd think what an idiot! The last king just died for breaking the rules and now you just did! But here's the loop hole. David did this through God. God wanted David to go there and out of it came a new cheif... Joab
