2 Samuel11:16

16 And it came to pass when Joab observed the city, that he assigned Uriah unto a place where he knew that valiant men were .

Placed there to defend it, because that part of the City was supposed either the weakest, or the place designed for the Assault. Ioab having formerly committed a base Murder upon Abner, was ready to execute this wicked Command of the King; that so he being involved in the same Guilt with him, might the more willingly receive him into favour.
