Male • King of Judah • Anointed king of Israel, ancestor of Jesus Christ

King living at the time of United Monarchy

David, son of Jesse, was the anointed king of Israel, a man after God's own heart, and an ancestor of Jesus Christ. (Rut.4.17 etc.; 1Sa.16.13 etc.; 2Sa.1; 2 etc.; 1Ki.1; 2 etc.; 2Ki.8.19 etc.; 1Ch.2.15 etc.; 2Ch.1.1 etc.; Ezr.3.10 etc.; Neh.3.15 etc.; Psa.3.1 etc.; Pro.1.1; Ecc.1.1; Sng.4.4; Isa.7.2 etc.; Jer.13.13 etc.; Ezk.34.23 etc.; Hos.3.5; Amo.6.5 etc.; Zec.12.7 etc.; 2Sa.13.39; Mat.1.1 etc.; Mrk.2.25 etc.; Luk.1.27 etc.; Jhn.7.42 etc.; Act.1.16 etc.; Rom.1.3 etc.; 2Ti.2.8; Heb.4.7 etc.; Rev.3.7; 5.5; 22.16)

David, the son of Jesse from Bethlehem, was a prominent figure in the Old Testament and is mentioned extensively throughout the Bible. He was anointed by Samuel to be king over Israel, succeeding Saul (1 Samuel 16:13). David first gained fame as a young man by defeating the Philistine giant Goliath with a sling and a stone (1 Samuel 17).

David's reign as king was marked by military successes, as he defeated the enemies of Israel and expanded the kingdom (2 Samuel 8). He is known for his devotion to God and is called "a man after God's own heart" (1 Samuel 13:14; Acts 13:22). Many of the psalms in the Bible are attributed to David, reflecting his deep faith and trust in God (e.g., Psalms 3, 23, 51).

However, David's life was not without flaws. He committed adultery with Bathsheba and orchestrated the death of her husband, Uriah (2 Samuel 11). As a result, David faced consequences, including the death of his child and turmoil within his family (2 Samuel 12-18).

Despite his failings, David remained a central figure in Israel's history and a model of repentance and faith. He was promised an enduring dynasty, and the Messiah would come from his lineage (2 Samuel 7:12-16). This prophecy was fulfilled in Jesus Christ, who is called the "Son of David" (Matthew 1:1; Romans 1:3).

David's life and reign are recorded in 1 and 2 Samuel, 1 Chronicles, and portions of 1 Kings. His significance extends into the New Testament, where he is mentioned in connection with Jesus' lineage and messianic identity (Matthew 1:1; Luke 1:32; Acts 13:22-23; Revelation 22:16).
