SCRIPTURE
"And the tidings came to Joab; for Joab had turned after Adonijah, though he turned not after Absalom. And Joab fled unto the Tent of Jehovah, and caught hold on the horns of the altar." — 1 Kings 2:28 (ASV)
Joab followed the example of Adonijab. The tabernacle was now at Gibeon (1 Kings 3:4; 1 Chronicles 16:39).
