BIBLICAL TREATMENT OF (P.O.W) PRISONERS OF WAR

 2 Cronicles 28:12-15

 Then certain of the heads of the children of Ephraim, Azariah the son of Johanan, Berechiah the son of Meshillemoth, and Jehizkiah the son of Shallum, and Amasa the son of Hadlai, stood up against them that came from the war,

 And said unto them, Ye shall not bring in the captives hither: for whereas we have offended against the LORD already, ye intend to addmore to our sins and to our trespass: for our trespass is great, and there is fierce wrath against Israel.

 So the armed men left the captives and the spoil before the princes and all the congregation.

 And the men which were expressed by name rose up, and took the captives, and with the spoil clothed all that were naked among them, and arrayed them, and shod them, and gave them to eat and to drink, and anointed them, and carried all the feeble of them upon asses, and brought them to Jericho, the city of palm trees, to their brethren: then they returned to Samaria.
