King David in the Bible was a terrible guy, if we keeping it a buck.

The guy just had one of the greatest PR of all time.

I mean let's start from that story about Nabal. The guy did not ask you to watch his flock, you did it for free. Then when he wouldn't give you out of his feast you strapped up with 400 men to wipe his entire family out. Are you not a glorified Shekau?

You didn't even watch his flock like that, you just did him the favor of not stealing from him and you came for a reward?

Then his wife came to meet you secretly and the man conveniently died ten days after?

And said wife now comes to you.

Hmmmmmmmm.

That's even before we get to sleeping with the wife of your own cousin and loyal soldier. You stayed home, had sex with his wife, tried to scheme to cover your tracks, then killed him?

Hmmmmmm.

Let me add one more entry: David pretended not to want Saul dead. But how come the guy that came to report Saul's death to him (and claimed to kill Saul) took the king's crown and arm band and brought it to David?

Then David conveniently killed the guy. Looks fishy to me.

Lmao can't wait to make a film where David is the villain. We've praised this guy too much.

In my movie, David was a popular military officer who wanted the throne. Managed to get discovered, banished, worked with the Philistines and a Hittite to get both Saul and Jonathan killed. Then became king and whitewashed the hell out of his story.

He couldn't kill Saul himself because contrary to narrative, Saul was popular . When Saul died, the men of Israel sent a commando unit to fight their way into Philistia to recover his remains. So David didn't spare him because of God. If he tried it, he would've never been king.
