Retaliation » Instances of » Joab on abner
Joab and his brother Abishai killed Abner because he had put their brother Asahel to death in the battle at Gibeon.
When Abner returned to Hebron, Joab pulled him aside to the middle of the gateway, as if to speak to him privately, and there Joab stabbed him in the stomach. So Abner died in revenge for the death of Asahel, Joab’s brother.
