They helped David against raiders, since they were all warriors and commanders in the army.

Zadok, a young and valiant soldier, brought 22 commanders from his own ancestral house.

The tribe of Naphtali supplied 1,000 commanders, accompanied by 37,000 troops armed with shields and spears.

David ordered Joab and the commanders of the army, "Go take a census of Israel from Beer-sheba to Dan, and bring me a report so I can be aware of the total number."

A descendant of Perez, he was chief of all the commanders of the army for the first month.

David gathered together all of the leaders of Israel, the leaders of the tribes, division officers who reported to the king, the commanders of thousands, commanders of hundreds, the supervisors of the property and livestock that belonged to the king and to his sons, along with all of the officers of the palace, the elite forces, and all of the soldiers.

So the leaders of the ancestral households presented their voluntary offerings, as did the leaders of the tribes, the commanders of thousands and hundreds, and the officials in charge of the king's business.
