According to paragraph one, what was David’s job for King Saul?
The story of David’s life is told in several books of the Hebrew Bible, including Samuel I and II and Psalms. During his youth, David worked as an aide in King Saul’s court. While at court, he formed a close friendship with the king’s son, Jonathan. David fought courageously against the Philistines as a soldier in Saul’s army. He also killed the Philistine giant, Goliath, with only a slingshot and stones. The first book of Samuel tells how David’s harp playing pleased King Saul. But the King grew jealous of David’s friendship with Jonathan and of David’s growing popularity as a brave soldier.
