David

David is the second king of Israel. The story of his fight with the Philistine Goliath is one of the best-known sections of the Bible (1 Samuel 17). The house of David sits on the throne in Jerusalem from the tenth to the sixth century before Christ. God promises David that he will be king for ever.
