Hanun
     graciously given. (1.) The son and successor of Nahash, king of
     Moab. David's messengers, sent on an embassy of condolence to
     him to Rabbah Ammon, his capital, were so grossly insulted that
     he proclaimed war against Hanun. David's army, under the command
     of Joab, forthwith crossed the Jordan, and gained a complete
     victory over the Moabites and their allies (2 Sam. 10:1-14) at
     Medeba (q.v.).
       (2.) Neh. 3:13. (3.) 3:30.
