DESCRIPTION
Experience the life of David like never before: no verse numbers, no cross references, no distractions. Just the pure, uninterrupted story of Israel’s shepherd, warrior, and king, drawn entirely from the words of scripture (KJV).
Have you ever wished you could read the story of David as one seamless narrative, without jumping between Samuel, Kings, and Chronicles to piece it all together? The Story of David lets you do exactly that.
Every word in this book is taken directly from the King James Bible, arranged in paragraph format and unified into a single, flowing account: from David’s anointing to his last days, establishing his throne and kingdom unto Solomon.
The main storyline from 1 & 2 Samuel + 1 Kings is woven together with 1 Chroniclesand select Psalms of David with careful attention to detail, preserving every word of scripture that pertains to David’s life and faith. Portions unique to Chronicles appear in [brackets], clearly distinguished yet seamlessly integrated. The Psalms connected to David’s experiences are inserted where they were first written, adding a layer of depth to the moment when David was moved in the Spirit to write holy scripture.
This book is intended as a complete and immersive study on the life of David, according to the scriptures:
- Pure scripture only: no commentary, no interpretation, just the KJV.
- Chronological harmony: the full story of David in one continuous flow.
- Beautiful formatting: paragraph layout, easy to read 12-point font, clear sectioning, and over 20 wood-engraved illustrations from Julius Schnorr von Carolsfeld, original map of Judah in the time of David.
- Collection of David’s Psalms: all 73 Psalms ascribed to David are gathered together, organized in beautiful poetic prose, without verse numbers
- Supplemental lists: a list of every time David is mentioned in the Prophets as well as every mention in the New Testament.
Whether read devotionally, in study groups, or aloud, this book invites you to encounter David as scripture plainly presents him: the anointed shepherd fleeing for safety, the sweet psalmist of Israel, the king after God’s own heart.
Shew me thy ways, O LORD;
teach me thy paths.
Lead me in thy truth, and teach me:
for thou art the God of my salvation;
on thee do I wait all the day.
Psalm 25:4–5
