Paul Abramson follows David's life as a servant to King Saul, a rebel against Saul, and as king, and shows that he has considerable political skill in all three stages. Throughout most of this account David displays remarkable political sagacity, and more can be learned studying his life than that of any other king of Israel or Judah. 600 00 $a David, $c King of Israel. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n79055293 600 07 $a David, $c King of Israel. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00035586 600 07 $a Saul, $c King of Israel. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00056749 650 0 $a Politics in the Bible. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85104476 650 7 $a Politics in the Bible. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01069974 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231017013809.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=3D32864AF69E11E78A00251D97128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
