2 Samuel 21:16
And Ishbi-benob, which was of the sons of the giant, the weight of whose spear weighed three hundred shekels of brass in weight, he being girded with a new sword, thought to have slain David.

The account belongs to the later history of David, set in a record of victories won by David and his men. It stands among the judgments that followed David's great transgression, fulfilling the prophetic denunciation spoken by Nathan. The surrounding chapter shows that God holds His people collectively responsible when many allow the transgressions of a few to continue. It also illustrates God's opposition to oppression, even oppression against people outside the household of faith. Here David still wanted to go into battle when it was no longer prudent for him to do so, while his associates recognized the danger and exposed themselves to protect him.
