tribe of Judah. Even though he was the youngest of seven brothers, David was tasked to defend the family inheritance as a shepherd boy. After being anointed by the Prophet Samuel, David entered into the service of King Saul as his musician and armor bearer. Though he had not engaged in battle yet, he was very familiar with warfare and its tactics. Above all, he had a tender heart for the God of Israel, Yahweh. The Philistines were reported to be preparing for war at the valley of Elah, so the Israelites, including David’s brothers, traveled there to hold them off. Days later, Jesse sent David to the battlefield, but when the young man arrived, he witnessed his Israelite brothers cowering from the Philistines. Apparently, the armies enacted the battle of champions; a ritual that required a champion of each nation to battle. However, when the Philistines revealed their champion to be a giant named Goliath, the Israelites feared to present their champion. For forty days, this giant took advantage of the Israelite’s cowardice, and taunted them with a battle of the gods; to determine whose god was the best. This was an offense against Yahweh , and a challenge that someone had to accept soon. Without hesitation, David offered himself as the champion to King Saul. At first he was mocked and ridiculed, but after David called upon the power of Yahweh, the Israelites accepted his request. Now, he plans to humiliate Goliath, the Philistines, and their false idol Dagon. And David is more than willing to be the weapon in his God’s hand…no matter the cost! https://www.swordofwarmovie.com/characterbios/goliath-bio monthly 0.5 2020-11-12 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f7f830d896ddb1bb1e49606/1612417941868-LPCM020639KJ25GXRVNJ/GOLIATH+WO+ARMOR+CONCEPT+FULL+BODY+2.png Sword of War Film - Goliath - Goliath Like all Philistine boys, Goliath was bred for war. Having been blessed by Dagon with incredible size and strength, Goliath had no equal. As a fresh solider, he quickly proved he was more than a large battering ram by mastering three weapons; the sword, spear and javelin. His skill earned him a place among the Sword of Dagon, the elite force of the Philistine army. After years of moving his way up the ranks, Goliath became the champion of his people. Whole battles were won in a single fight between him and other nations’ weak excuses for champions. Prior to the Philistines’ invasion of Israel, Goliath commissioned a new sword to be forged for him. This blade, forged out of the best iron in the land, would be his message to the filthy Hebrew tribesmen. On its hilt is a detailed gold idol of Dagon, symbolizing his desire to consume all those in his path, as if he were Dagon himself. Currently, Goliath awaits at the valley of Elah, and has called for a champion of Israel to present himself. For forty days, Goliath has impatiently waited, and he has continued to rouse his Philistine brothers with the promise of a swift victory and the long awaited destruction of Israel. Little does he know of what is about to happen next… https://www.swordofwarmovie.com/characterbios/the-israelite-army monthly 0.5 2020-12-02 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f7f830d896ddb1bb1e49606/1612472236182-H6A389XTSM8EYM9FCN7B/ISRAELITE+BIO+PIC.png Sword of War Film - Israelite Army https://www.swordofwarmovie.com/characterbios/the-philistine-army monthly 0.5 2020-12-16 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f7f830d896ddb1bb1e49606/1612485291467-QAHQPOSH0UV6BDA2K1ZB/PHILISTINE+ARMY+PIC.png Sword of War Film - Philistine Army https://www.swordofwarmovie.com/characterbios/yahweh monthly 0.5 2020-12-16 https://www.swordofwarmovie.com/characterbios/dagon monthly 0.5 2020-11-12
