Bible Question: how old was david when he killed goliath |
Bible Answer: Greetings, Here we find, in 1 Samuel Chapter 17, a firm case of the humble being exalted. he was but a youth, a shepherd, never in the wars,due to his young age, but he had done as much as the killing of Goliath called for, for he had spirit and strength enough to subdue a lion once and another time a bear that robbed him of his lambs, v. 34–36. His father was old,(vs 12), and he had three older brothers. I would gather him to be in his middle teens.This is as close as I can get to the age of David, I hope it helps. sincerely, Tim |
