It was Prince Gabriel, who had broken rank first, sauntering forward with all eyes on him. He humbles himself when standing across from the king, their fight, a distant memory. “Our focus needs to be on protecting our people and our kingdom,” he declares and asks. “What happen during your time at King David’s court?” King Robert recounted his tale, in which his brothers were not surprised by King David’s trickery. “The body we believe was of someone who had perished a week prior.” “Do you believe the Shadow is alive?” Prince Fabian said. In which point the king replies, “I don’t know.” “Have you spoken with the Seeker? Has he explain why King David would conceal the Shadow from you?” he queries. “King David must’ve known his deceit will be uncovered.” “Soon,” the king responds, sliding his eyes to a quiet Gabriel. “Brother, what’s wrong? You make me feel uneasy when you’ve been silent for this long.” All eyes bounce to him. “Brother, do you know something?” Fabian inquires. Gabriel’s eyes scan the room, before landing on the king. He has an answer to Fabian’s question, one he is not too thrilled with revealing, how he pertain this knowledge. His thick brows bend inwards, as he bites his lower lip. He felt as if he was chain to a wall-like a servant being tortured for the whereabouts of his master. He knew he needed to speak, no matter the consequence to himself. His brother, King Robert, is in a dire situation, and for once, needed his unorthodox ways of attaining

In 2 Samuel the narrative shifts to the reign of David as he rises above Saul’s son Ish-bosheth to become the king, first of Judah and then of all the tribes of Israel (5:1–4). The book records David’s wars of conquest including the capture of Jerusalem and the relocation of the ark of the covenant to the City of David (6:1–19). But the author also records David’s failures: his adultery with Bathsheba (11:1–26), Absalom’s rebellion (15:1–18:30), Sheba’s revolt (20:1–26), and the disastrous census (24:1–25).

As we examine the heroes of the faith outlined for us in the Old Testament, we would be hard pressed to find a more faithful man that King David. After the death of King Saul, David became the King of the Hebrew people. David, who was meek and pious, steadfastly believed in the true God and tried to do His will. He had endured much persecution from Saul and other enemies but did not become bitter, did not lift his hand against Saul, as he was the Lord’s anointed, but placed all his hope in God, and the Lord delivered him from all his enemies.
The ultimate goal here is to challenge the writer find a definitive reason for the downfall of King David who is said to be a man after God’s own heart.
After defeating Goliath, whose head lies at David's feet, he rests his sword by his side. It seems almost impossible that such a young boy as David could have accomplished such a task. The look portrayed on David himself too seems doubtful of the deed, as he glances down towards Goliath?s head at his feet.

The Maycomb community singled out Tom and did not treat him with any respect because of his skin color. “You felt sorry for her, you felt sorry for her?”(Lee 264). When Tom went to testify and said he felt sorry for mayella the lawyer almost laughed at him because of how disrespectful he is.

What they didn’t understand is that Tom felt sorry for her because she sees him hurting and no one else can figure it out. No matter what his skin color is he sees what is going on and feels sorry that Mayella has to live

In the story David and Goliath there is a great lesson to be learned. The story shows that you should never underestimate your opponent and be prepared for anything. David’s own intellect and knowledge of his own abilities enabled him to become the smaller, but stronger opponent. It all comes down to who is the better leader.

David's place of birth was Bethlehem, City of David Jerusalem where he grew up as a shepherd, but he is better known for his youthful triumph over Goliath, as well as being a poet, musician, soldier, and a king (Holy Bible, NLT, 1996). King David died at the age of seventy after ruling for forty years.
