Hey guys here is a nugget that these so called "archeologists" have NOT considered: David was not an Egyptian, neither a Babylonian which boasted with their "great monuments" so I do not comprehend how these people discredit The Bible based on their limited and selfish understanding of things. David did not create these "great pyramids", but he based the beauty of his Kingdom based on one single relic, The Ark of The Covenant. While these bunch of ignorant assume "greatness" based on huge statutes... David based it on humbleness, HE DID NOT need immense buildings to be great, neither he looked to impress any man, but God alone. The guy was a HUMBLE man, so what to the Archeologists may represent "greatness", it may not be necessarily what David viewed as such.. In few words, these "archeologists" are trying to find monuments of a Dynasty based on what THEY think should be, but not based on what David thought of it.

[@daveberry5901]

Hi, I am David. . .One thing I have noticed, is how this guy is just trying to down play Goliath, and what happened. . .It wasn't so much a well placed rock, it was who made it hit the way it did. God placed it directly into the left eye, he was not getting back up. . ..Period.

[@dstinnettmusic]

I used to watch this guy and was sad to not get to watch his show anymore once History switched to reality TV. Happy to have found that the rights to Naked Archeologist have ended up with someone who can post it on KZbin.

[@robertguest5215]

for a start, simca used the wrong type of sling. And secondly there have been stones fired from ancient slingshots embedded in stone walls found. And david being a shepherd he would have been well versed in its use.protecting his animals from preditors....

I think he’s basing his assumptions about David’s career more on pop culture, and less on the Biblical text. David was important because of the significance of what he did politically, and because of his significance in the messianic genealogy. Not because he created a city to rival New York.

[@Zed-Head]

He established Israel with God, he reunited God with man through a new bond after the failures of man. Adam, Noah, Abraham, Moses, they all had generations of people who transgressed against God.

There was a man in the early 1900’s called Robert Wadlow that stood 8ft 11in right away in this doc we have a man doubting the size of the Goliath of 9ft 9 is this man trying to say that in 3000 years nobody achieved such great height… 10inches taller than Robert… come on man why they gonna exaggerate.

[@6foot8jesuspilledpureblood82]

I'm 6 foot 8 and I come from a short family, is it so hard to believe that Goliath was 9 foot

[@pleopold4010]

David did those things with God as his leader. Nothing would've been impossible for him as God led him.

[@davidunderwood9728]

I think where a lot of the confusion of the Empire is we are comparing size of a 1000 BC entities to what empires became 1000 - 2000 years later. To me they seem to say well this empire wasn't as big as Egypt or other forces at the time so there was no empire. Maybe it was just size of a Kingdom. That is still a significant achievement for the time.

[@J.S.fromBoston]

David had actually picked up 5 stones because he feared that Goliath's 4 brothers might retaliate.

[@SynrsCreed]

5 is a number representing death in The Bible. There is no reason listed, so the ONLY assumption we can make would be allegorical. Any real world reason is a fabrication

[@J.S.fromBoston]

@@SynrsCreed I was informed of the 5 stone reasoning from Bible stories explained by Dr. Chuck Missler. He is pretty much a very well renowned Bible Scholar.

[@SynrsCreed]

@@J.S.fromBoston Chuck has also said it was because there were 5 elders from the tribes or something. Too many theories from outside the Bible

[@willbe5994]

Or (now brace yourselves here) maybe he just picked up some extra ones just in case he missed or didn’t kill him with the first shot. Like having extra bullets in a clip. Then again it could also be because 5 squared equals 25 which is one quarter of a hundred and a quarter has the face of George Washington who is a great hero! So it could be that….

It maybe the range of David's influence is the thing that was important. If he was the main king, he may have been the main lord of a group of close alliances. A U.S. or E.U.? Tribute/taxes?

[@f1s2hg3]

Psalms of David were given by God’s Spirit to David and then they were written down for David and then they were performed by David to God in person. God was a Fan of David playing skills because David could sooth the savage beast with his harp.

[@f1s2hg3]

Mother told the story of her experience giving birth to me. The doctor said it’s not going good during the delivery but mom made it with God’s Grace and mom said she felt God’s Spirit speaking to her and say DAVID name him DAVID. I was named DAVID and dad wanted a ROY! but my name is DAVID and I have a special relationship with God. Mom was right God is still choosing people today to serve Him. I started playing guitar at 56 years of age and I was practicing about a year ago and I got a song from God and it’s good to good to come from my musical heart. The song is a beautiful song and it sounds like a cry for mercy. Mom hears me play it and she cry’s tears of joy because she knows I’m DAVID and God is my friend.

I love this guys documentaries and most of all his sense of humor - having said that sometimes I do feel he has an agenda ( I wish to believe he didn’t coz I really enjoy his programs ) - even in this why does he keep telling “ the Bible says “ ? Doesn’t the Tora also mention about kind David ? As far as i know David is fundamental to Judaism - so why doesn’t he use tora even once ? It would ve been more neutral if he did so

[@ralph543]

It’s probably because he has expertise in biblical archaeology and not in the others.

Well, as it happens, when it comes to gettin down....David's that dude. And Goliath is big for nothin. Imagine if you were getting ready to rock with Goliath and he said "come to me boy, so I can feed your flesh to the birds of the air and the beasts of the field". I know I would be 2nd guessing my moves. This dudes talking about feeding my flesh to the birds man. I don't know how I feel about that. Turns out, David is just as wild. He wants to feed the entire camp of the Philistines to the birds and beasts. Then said the Lord is about to deliver Goliath into his hand. And Goliath is gonna get smited. Nothing like getting smited man. He fuckin smote his ruin. Thats some old other shit!! Man I've had my ruin smote once or twice. It's no good.

[@888mladen]

What a deception. So the Old Testament account about David and Goliath is not a true story but you will miraculously tell us a real story almost 3000 years after the event. You remind me on evolutionists who can tell with stunning confidence what happened on Earth millions years ago.

I love the fact u all prove there is a God thank u for teaching the truth

[@joelirish]

How did he prove God exists? (without answering "the Bible tells me so")

[@ragingmailbox5985]

The only thing that’s been proven is that there were a people in ancient times, that they were semi-nomadic, they encountered a people in Sinai, the Shasu, who worshiped YHW, and they borrowed that tradition to create their own origin story and unifying mythology. YHWH was born in Canaan, the people worshiped YHWH, in addition to their old gods, until the Babylonians invaded and sacked Jerusalem (at that point, the idols and “false gods” were banned because Israel believed they had been the reason for Babylon’s conquest). There is evidence that David really did exist, and that he and Solomon were the earliest biblical figures with some degree of historicity. There is zero evidence that any biblical figures or stories prior to David actually existed or happened. It was a set of myths and stories designed to bring structure and morality to a newly-growing population of distinct people who would come to know themselves as the Israelites.

[@jharnden7931]

Goliath showed that size did not always matter...maybe good love songs and a lyre help.

[@coreymacgregor4468]

When James uses a regular slingshot instead of a sling to mimic David totally looked stupid

[@Yerboiy]

No kidding. It's obvious their goal is to sew seeds of don't into people's hearts. If they showed the demonstration of a true sling it would show how the story might actually be true.

[@jaytrace1006]

I have faith in what God’s Word said, not so much in the men depicted here. When it comes down to David, Goliath, et al, it’s nice to have archaeological proof, but it is not necessary for me to believe.

five smooth stones So armed with a shepherds staff, his sling in his hand, and five smooth stones in his shepherd's bag David went to meet Goliath. We know the result of that meeting.

[@VaxtorT]

David did not establish the Messianic Lineage....fairly certain that was of The Lord's doing.

[@jharnden7931]

I think a couple of them had to "get busy" for all but one of those to work. Although the assumption is that God made David lustful during the early part. It may not be technically adultery, since some Jewish soldiers would do a technical divorce on leaving for battle...making a new marriage easier if you didn't come back...don't have marry a brother in law or something.

Interesting that one of your experts says King David created Judaism, because the concept that Jews are the blessed nation is very much an arrogant claim, whereas Our Creating beingbthe one who Blesses who He blesses alone being the real truth. That no nation can lay claim to being blessed not Jews, Christians, or Muslims, only those who Our Creator's blesses.

David may have been a military chief rather than a true king, but over time the word has evolved to mean a true king. Also, the details of the biblical accounts would suggest that David and Solomon were vassal rulers of Hiram the king of Tyre which means that their province of Israel may not have been as large as traditionally imagined and not all the war locations to attached into part of their province.
