David became famous when he defeated the enemy Philistine giant Goliath in a battle. That kind of tall and seemingly invincible opponent seems to have always been the first large-scale stepping stone for young heroes to become famous, such as Apollo killing the giant snake skin. At the same time, the big guy was killed with one sword when Achilles appeared in the battle with Troy.
However, although the young David stood out as a brave warrior, he still accompanied King Saul as a harp boy who played and sang. It can be said that he was a rare young man with both civil and military skills. No wonder the children of Saul were greatly shocked. dump.
Prince Jonathan loved David deeply and often told others: "Jonathan loved David as much as his own life." At the same time, Princess Michal also fell in love with David very much.
However, the people's fanatical pursuit of stars made Saul secretly suspicious. Among the Israelites, people often sang folk songs that made King Saul very unhappy: Saul killed thousands of enemies, and David killed tens of thousands.
Saul tried to kill David with his spear, but the latter dodged several times. Even the marriage became a trap for Saul to kill with a sword. If David wanted to marry the princess Michal, he had to kill a hundred Philistines.
However, David overachieved and married Michal. As the king's son-in-law, David had great achievements and was surrounded by crises. Fortunately, the prince Jonathan came to mediate. However, this was also the tragedy of Jonathan. He defended his friend, but was almost stabbed in the heart by his father with a spear. Saul also scolded him: "You son of a stubborn and rebellious woman, didn't I know that you were pleased with the son of Jesse (referring to David)? ) to bring shame on yourself, so that your mother will be exposed and shamed!"
In fact, if translated into a foul language, it would better show King Saul's unhappy attitude: "Fuck you! Pretend that I don't know that you are attracted to that pretty boy!"
However, Jonathan really loved David. He knew that David might hinder him from inheriting the throne of Saul, but he said sincerely: "You will be the king of Israel, and I will be your prime minister."
Love is so devoted that it transcends political utility. Whether it is friendship or love, who can not be moved by it? Later, when David composed the "Song of Bows" to commemorate Jonathan who died in battle, he also said: "My brother Jonathan! I grieve for you. I am very pleased with you. Your love for me is more wonderful than the love of women." "
Saul's hatred of David reached an intolerable level, so David escaped with the help of his wife Michal and began a long exile. He did not want to commit treason, but asked other countries to give him a place to live; he went to recover the city of Keilah, which was occupied by the enemy, but was attacked from behind by Saul; Saul vowed to search him out from among the thousands of households. David gave up two easy opportunities to kill Saul...
After experiencing so many risks and twists and turns, David's brave, witty, tolerant and patient personality charm became more and more prominent. In the process of pursuing David, Saul's brutal and indiscriminate killing of innocent people increasingly alienated the people. All the people went to David.
Later, Saul was defeated, and David finally became King David of the Israelites.
During David's reign, he conquered the Philistines, Edomites, Moabites, and Ammonites and made them slaves of the Israelites. Damascus, Zobah, and even Hamath, which were powerful at that time, were all under David's control. Or surrender to him. Israel became a powerful nation comparable to Egypt, Assyria, and Babylon.
He recaptured the city of Jerusalem, his childhood birthplace, from his enemies and built it into the royal capital of the Israelites. He transported the Ark of the Covenant containing the Jewish Bible here and designed a gorgeous palace for it. King David declared Judaism as the state religion, and Jehovah God was the only God of the Israelites.
Jehovah God is the name the Israelites call Yahweh. This is the name Yahweh told Moses when he made a covenant with Moses.
After becoming famous, King David, who thought he was powerful, naturally began to enjoy himself, but before enjoying himself, he was still waiting for the death of a person.
Although he was the king of Israel, above the kings there was Samuel, the last great judge.
When Samuel died, David took over the power of the judges. He did not want to let the judges go out to cause trouble like his predecessor, King Saul.
Then, David's arrogant and sinful king's way, he sent his generals to attack everywhere, but he only got up lazily from his bed when the sun set in the west. While he was walking boredly on the flat roof of the palace, he suddenly saw a woman taking a bath in a private courtyard.
Among all the pleasures of voyeurism, peeping on a beautiful woman taking a bath is probably the most exciting. David investigated her identity and learned that she was the wife of a soldier. Her husband was away fighting for the country. However, David did not give up and summoned her into the palace without any guilt. Some pleasant things happened, but unexpectedly... Therefore, the bead body is dark.
In order to cover up his dirty deeds, King David recalled Uriah, Bathsheba's husband, and after a while of rambling, he sent him back to reunite with his wife. Unexpectedly, Uriah was an upright soldier. When his comrades were fighting bloody battles, he refused to enjoy the privilege to himself.
David had no choice but to send someone to get him drunk, but Uriah still refused to obey. Finally, David came up with a vicious plan: He asked Uriah to bring a letter to his superiors, and the letter contained an order to kill Uriah. This was a very powerful way to kill someone with a borrowed sword, and Uriah died because of it.
Of course, David had many wives, and this was only the origin of one of his wives. Several of his other wives were taken from others.
The upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked. As a father, David failed to set an example. In fact, it can also be said that the gods in this world have not set a good example.
One of David's sons, Amnon, was looked down upon by all other women, but he only liked his half-sister Tamar, and he raped her. They were all his own children. Although David was angry, he could only let it go.
However, this incident was remembered by Absalom, Tamar’s half-brother.
Among David's sons, Absalom was the most handsome, comparable to the most handsome gods, and he was also the most beloved by David. Then this most favored child gathered his forces and led troops to attack the city of Jerusalem, frightening his father King David and fleeing.
King David fled in panic. Absalom occupied the palace, killed his half-brother who raped his sister, and raped David's concubines in broad daylight in front of the people. The location was chosen in the palace. The platform where David wandered and saw Bathsheba.
On this platform, David had evil thoughts and took away the wives of his soldiers. His concubines were also on this platform and were insulted by his own son.

"Yahweh, this is your chosen people, and this is their king. They are really an interesting group of people. I don't know if these people want your paradise, but I think they are all suitable to settle in my hell. "
Standing high in the sky, Satan could not help but sneer and whisper. He believed that Yahweh could hear what he said.
"How are you doing, Satan?"
Yahweh appeared next to Satan. His voice was neither sad nor happy, and he seemed not to care about the scene in the world at all.
"How about I make a bet with you? Among David's sons, we each choose one to see who can win the final victory."
Yahweh chuckled softly: "You have no chance of victory, but since you want to bet, I will follow you. But if you lose, you cannot declare your ability to the Israelites."
Satan smiled and agreed, but also made a request: "No matter whether they win or lose, Yahweh cannot damage their harvest."
Yahweh frowned slightly, and he began to speculate on Satan's intentions. A holy light crisscrossed his mind, and it seemed that everything that could be known and seen was reflected in this light. But on the way to this light, there will always be some darkness interfering on the side.
"Okay, I'll follow you."
Although darkness was by his side, it could not change the path of light or affect Yahweh's path, so he agreed to Satan's request.
"Since you two have made a bet, do you mind if I can be a witness?"
A familiar voice appeared, the God Lord Marduk stood in mid-air, next to Yahweh and Satan.
Before Yahweh and Satan could speak, Marduk suddenly smiled and said to the side: "Your Excellency, the Lord of the Stars, is also listening. You might as well bear witness together."
In the Egyptian underworld, Adros said to Matt, the Lord of Justice, on the side: "It seems that I have to go this time. I originally planned to stay with you for a while."
Matt rolled his eyes at him. Adros had been tormenting her a lot during this period. She regretted that the person here was not her own. Otherwise, with Adros' strength, he would not have dared to force her.
Adros took a step forward and came to the side of these masters. He smiled and said, "How do you know that I am listening?"
Marduk said: "I know that Lord Adros, like me, likes to go to the theater. There is no way you can miss this great human drama."
Of course, Adros couldn't be fooled by these words, but since Marduk didn't say anything, he couldn't ask more questions. However, he had some speculations in his mind. Could it be that the strength of this divine lord has been slightly discernible, and the fluctuations of his divine power can be detected from the heaven and earth
"It would be best for your Excellencies to come and witness. I am also worried about what if I win the bet, but someone flips the table over?"
Hearing Satan's mocking words, Yahweh naturally didn't care. He just looked at the two masters who suddenly appeared and said with a smile: "Since the two masters have come to the land of Canaan, please invite me. As a guest in the Garden of Eden, as for human affairs, just pay attention to them at your leisure."
The so-called bet is nothing serious to Yahweh.
Marduk nodded and looked at Adros: "Lord of the Stars, will we go together?"
Adros could feel that it was a lie that Marduk asked him to come here to witness, and that it was true that he had something to do with him, but he didn't know what it was, and he wanted to go to Yahweh's Garden of Eden to talk about it.
The three masters left together, leaving only Satan present. He looked at the direction in which the three gods left, snorted coldly, and then disappeared.
