In 2 Samuel 21 7-9 why wasn't Jonathan's son Mephibosheth executed at this time too?
King David saved him in recognition of King David's love and friendship with Jonathan. But the king spared Mephibosheth, the son of Jonathan the son of Saul, because of the LORD's oath that was between them, between David and Jonathan the son of Saul. See 1 Samuel, chapter 20 for the source of this love and oath. 16 : So Jonathan made a covenant with the house of David, saying, Let the LORD even require it at the hand of David's enemies. 17 : And Jonathan caused David to swear again, because he loved him: for he loved him as he loved his own soul.

Jonathan and David from Bible were what relation?
There are several Jonathan's mentioned in connection with David in the Bible:*A son of priest Abiathar who served as a courier for David (2Samuel 15:27-29)*A nephew, the son of King David's brother Shimea (2Samuel 21:20, 21)*Uzziah's son , in charge of David's "treasures in the field" (1Chronicles 27:25)*But of course, the most famous JONATHAN was David's best friend, and favorite son of King Saul. (1Samuel 14:49, 50). This is the one I assume you are referring to.David and this Jonathan would be related distantly:Abraham and Sarah had IsaacIsaac and Rebekah had Jacob.Jacob had twelve sons, who became the heads of the twelve tribes of Israel....initially: Reu′ben, Sim′e‧on, Le′vi, Judah, Dan, Naphtali, Gad, Asher, Is′sa‧char, Zebulun, Joseph, Benjamin.Jonathan, the son of King Saul, was from the tribe ofBenjamin,David was from the tribe ofJudah,and BOTH came along many generations and hundreds of years after the tribes' beginnings, so their family relationship was quite distant....very very distant cousins, perhaps?Jonathan was the son of the first King of Israel, and nearly 60 when he died in about 1078 B.C.E., at which time, David was 30 (Numbers 1:3) (1 Samuel 31:2; 2 Samuel 5:4)Of course, if you go back far enough, ALL of us are related.
