What did saul's daughter do to David?
David married Saul's daughter Michal.
Did David sleep with Saul's wife?
NO. However, David did marry Saul's daughter, Michal.
Was David's marriage to michal prearragned?
Technically yes. Saul was trying to marry one of his daughters to David so he could somehow have an advantage over him and somehow that would make the Philistines kill him... (there is no clear reason). David turned down Saul's first daughter, Merab, after he tried to arrange a marriage for them. Saul then figured out that Michal was in LOVE with David, and again tried to have them married. David turned him down again, but Saul wasn't going to give up so easily. He was still trying to get David killed by the Philistines, so he said that David could marry Michal if he could get the foreskins (please don't ask what that is) of a hundred Philistines. So David was finally satisfied with this (an issue with pride and humbleness) and did just that. Only he killed 200 Philistines and brought back 200 foreskins to Saul (yummy). Then David and Michal were married. It said David married Michal to become the king's (Saul's) son-in-law, but it also mentions how much Michal loved David. 1 Samuel 18:27-28 David and his men went out and killed two hundred Philistines. He brought their foreskins and presented the full number to the king so that he might become the king's son-in-law. Then Saul gave him his daughter Michal in marriage. When Saul realized that the LORD was with David and that his daughter Michal loved David," So yeah it was prearranged. Though I feel as though Michal may have asked to marry David after he turned down Merab.
What daughter was promised to David if he slew Goliath?
Saul offered Michal his daughter to David if he could produce the foreskins of a hundred Philistines.
Who was David of David and Goliath married to?
David won Michal's hand in marriage when he fulfilled King Saul's challenge to kill 100 Philistines all by himself. Michal was King Saul's daughter. King Saul hated David because he was jealous of him and was hoping that David would be killed trying to fulfill the King's request. David killed twice the number of Philistines required of the King and so Michal was given to David to be his wife. Ref: (I Samuel 18:26-30).
Which one of King David's wives despised him for bringing back the ark of the covenant?
It was Michal, Saul's daughter.
Who was Paltiel's wife in the bible?
Paltiel's wife was Saul's daughter, Michal...atleast for a short time.Paltiel (Palti) was the son of Laish from Gallim. When King Saul wanted to hurt David, he took his daughter, Michal, who was already David's wife, and gave her in marriage to Palti (Paltiel). (1Samel 25:44) When David became king, he spoke to Saul's son Ish-bosheth, and demanded Michal be returned to him, which she was. (2Samuel 3:12-16).
Who nagged david for dancing in the street?
David's wife, Michal, nagged him for dancing in the street as he brought the ark of the Covenant to Jerusalem. She criticized him for his behavior, feeling that it was beneath his royal position.
What was the purpose of David's army collecting foreskins of his enemies to bring to Saul?
King Saul was jealous of David, but Saul offered his daughter, Michal to David as a wife. David said he was too poor to give a dowry to Saul for his daughter, but Saul said he wanted no dowry, but wanted David to avenge him (Saul) upon the Philistines by bringing 100 foreskins of the enemy back to him. But Saul's motive was not what he said, but rather he wanted David to engage in battle with the Philistines in hopes that David would be killed.
Who looked upon David with disdain as he celebrated God in dance?
1 Samuel 18:28 And Saul saw and knew that the LORD was with David, and that Michal Saul's daughter loved him.2 Samuel 6:16 And as the ark of the LORD came into the city of David, Michal Saul's daughter looked through a window, and saw king David leaping and dancing before the LORD; and she despised him in her heart.lots happened in between this two quotes. :0)

Saul wants someone to fight Goliath. So he challenged that whoever kills the gaint, Saul daughter will be given for the marriage. thus DAVID killed Goliath so he married sauls daughter
Was king Saul in the blood line of David?
No, they were unrelated, though they became related through marriage since David married Saul's daughter.
