The most significant symbol in this novel is the statue of David, which symbolizes Noah's homosexuality. When being wrestled for his sketchbook by Zephyr, Noah gets out, “‘They’re not dudes. They’re David’” (1). This quote conveys that Noah is still in the closet about his sexuality, which is later revealed.

In the poem “Casey at the Bat” and the story “David and Goliath,” a comparison of David and Casey shows many differences and similarities. One similarity between the two is that they were both on a team. Casey was on a team that played baseball. But David was on a team that fought in a war. Another similarity is that they both are confident.

In the poem “Casey at Bat” and story “David and Goliath,” a comparison of David and Casey shows differences and similarities. I think there are some reasons why they are the same. In the beginning of the chapter, it said that david was just a boy, and Casey must be a boy because modern kids are into baseball,sports, and whatnot. The two stories show that they both have some sort of team. It says in the story of david and goliath that there was an army, and in Casey’s story it says that the had a baseball team so technically they both have teams.

Writers often take advantage of the use of statistics and logic as a support to debatable claims. Malcolm Gladwell does not shy from this strategy, as most of the claims he makes, because he is not a scientist, are backed by logical reasoning and statistics from studies done by real scientists and researchers. In the first chapter of David and Goliath, Gladwell explains that underdogs win more than we would think. He uses a calculation done by Ivan Arreguin- Toft, a political scientist that shows that out of all the wars between very large and very small countries throughout the last two hundred years, 71.5 percent of the time, the bigger side wins.

In 2 Samuel 9-20 David had many fascinating and diabolical traits, he showed forgiveness, kindness, recognition of some of his sin and mourns just like everyone else. He also knew how to command and lead effectively which helped him, however also assisted with his malicious acts. David had to have whatever he wanted no matter what the cost; even though he knew, God was going to punish him for his actions. Bathsheba was described in the scriptures right away as being very beautiful. In addition was details about her menstrual cycle had just ended which was why she was bathing close to where King David was.

was a single fighting champion. His task was simple; it was to fight. Here in this story, God uses him to be the face of the measuring stick to test God leaders. Saul and David’s quality of leadership are only shown when they meet up with a Goliath in the valley.

There are many extraordinary people who were associated with the Bible. David from the David and Goliath story in the old Testament were one of these people. Another remarkable face in the history of the bible was Jesus Christ who died on the cross to wash away our sins of this Earth. Their stories helps us live good moral lives by inspiring us through the great qualities and their kind actions. I highly agree that the people and stories in the Bible help and inspire us to live good lives.

David is a topic from the Old Testament, which is widely repeated and done by many artists. David is a story where it shows that not only does strength wins in a battle but also wits. Each artist depicts David in different views and moments, like Michelangelo who is an Italian sculptor painter, architect, and poet of the High Renaissance, another is Gian Lorenzo Bernini who is an Italian architect and sculptor, and he was credited with creating the Baroque style of sculpture. Although both artists depicted David, but each one had different style where Bernini’s is more expressive then Michelangelo’s. Looking at both sculptures of David, there are some similarities which can be noticed.

Expect God’s Power to overcome his enemies still today. The victory of David over Goliath is a great example that for God there is nothing impossible. It does not matter place or time, if it’s in God’s plan whatever will happened is going to happened. Who would of thought that a young shepherd like David would have ever killed a giant man like Goliath. In 1 Samuel 16:7 “The Lord said to Samuel, Do not consider his appearance or his height” Sometimes we have doubt God and we question him.

Like most Bible stories taught to a child, the violence in the story of David and Goliath was strongly downplayed when it was taught to me in middle school. Basically, as I remember the story: Goliath was a huge enemy and someone needed to defeat him, but no one would do it, so eventually a scrawny boy named David stepped up with only a few rocks and a slingshot. When Goliath saw David he laughed at his size, but David hit Goliath in the head with a rock and thus, defeated him. Although this version is fairly accurate, it omits the foretelling beginning as well as the violent end of the story.
