Meet David

After being anointed by Samuel, David became the great king of Israel. David was the first good king to rule over Israel, and is the most important king in the Old Testament. David made plans to build a beautiful temple for all the Israelites to worship God. The Bible calls Jesus the son of David. Like David, Jesus is a great king who rules over God’s people. When God made a covenant with David, it was very special. David promised that the Israelites would obey all God’s laws and God promised to bless the Israelites and make them His people. This was the last covenant that God made before Jesus came.
