17:55 Sha’ul asks about David

Full kingdom

55 When Sha’ul had seen David going out to meet Goliat, he’d asked Abner, the army commander, “Whose son is this lad, Abner?”

“As surely as you live, your majesty,” replied Abner, “I don’t know.”

56 “Find out whose son he is,” the king had commanded.

57 Then when David had returned from killing the Philistine, Abner brought him to stand in front of Sha’ul, and he was holding Goliat’s head. 58 “Whose son are you, lad?” Sha’ul asked.

“I’m the son of your servant Yishay, who lives in Bethlehem,” replied David.
