MESSIANIC ROLE OF (BIBLICAL) KING DAVID AND CHALLENGE TO MODERN RULERS

King David who was a shepherd boy became Israel’s third and most important king. He is the most frequently mentioned human in the Old Testament, and the second most frequently mentioned human in the entire Bible. He is a main character in the Old Testament books of 1 Samuel, 2 Samuel, 1 Chronicles, and 2 Chronicles. He is also mentioned in several other books, and nearly half of the Psalms are attributed to him. Today, David is most famous for being the boy who defeated a giant with a slingshot. In fact, the famous narrative of “David and Goliath” has been so prolific in literature, art, and culture that it has become a common trope for describing other stories about underdogs (Hiesberger 289). 

But what makes David such a significant biblical figure with messianic role is his role in establishing God’s earthly headquarters in Jerusalem.
