A:Little is known about King David. The Deuteronomic History (Joshua, Judges, 1 Samuel, 2 Samuel, 1 Kings and 2 Kings) was written as far removed in time from King David as a modern history would be removed from King Arthur. The story of David and Goliath, in the Deuteronomic History but omitted from Chronicles, bears parallels to the story of King Arthur and Excalibur. In both cases, the hero was able to demonstrate ability where all othersa had failed. And both went on to become great kings in tradition.

Who was King Paul in the Bible?

There was no King Paul. But there was Paul the Apostle. His name was also Saul. Now there was a Jewish King named Saul, perhaps that's whom you mean. He was the King that ruled over Israel for 40 years, immediately preceeding the reign of King David. The last years of his life he lost God's blessing on his reign, God then picked David to be the next King. Saul was jealous of how God was with David, and so sought to have him killed on numerous occasions. Saul and his son Jonathan (who was very close friends with David before David was king) were both killed in a battle that saw King Saul's forces defeated by the Phillistines.
