Goliath

Goliath is a Philistine giant mentioned in the Book of Samuel. Descriptions of Goliath's immense stature vary among biblical sources. Goliath issued a challenge to the Israelites, daring them to send forth a champion to engage him in single combat; he was ultimately defeated by the young shepherd David, employing a sling and stone as a weapon. The narrative signified King Saul's unfitness to rule, as Saul himself should have fought for the Kingdom of Israel.
