Which giant did Elhanan kill?
Goliath2 Samuel 2119 And there was again a battle in Gob with the Philistines, where Elhanan the son of Jaareoregim, a Bethlehemite, slew the brother of Goliath the Gittite, the staff of whose spear was like a weaver's beam.AnswerThe name of the brother of Goliath is given in the verse below from 1 Chronicles. The translators quite properly inserted the 'brother of' due to the likely omission of this by some earlier copyist. That this is an insertion is made clear in all KJV Bibles by italics. 1 Chronicles 20:5 (King James Version)5 And there was war again with the Philistines; and Elhanan the son of Jair slew Lahmi the brother of Goliath the Gittite, whose spear staff was like a weaver's beam. Thus, the Biblical record makes it clear that David killed Goliath while Elhanan, as clarified with more detail by 1 Chronicles killed Lahmi Goliath's brother.
What was Goliath famous for?
Millions of young children have been taught the famous story of David slaying the Philistine giant, Goliath, to guide them to understand the greatness of David and, perhaps, his God. It seems that Goliath was also killed by Elhanan. 2 Samuel 21:19 (Hebrew Bible in English, JPS 1917 Edition):And there was again war with the Philistines at Gob; and Elhanan the son of Jaare-oregim the Beth-lehemite slew Goliath the Gittite, the staff of whose spear was like a weaver's beam.The one thing Goliath was famous for was being killed.
What tribe was Goliath from?
Goliath was a Philistine, not a member of a specific tribe. The Philistines were a people who lived in the ancient Near East and often clashed with the Israelites. Goliath is most famously known for his battle against the Israelite hero, David.
Where is Goliath's head bury?
The story of Goliath was just a legend. He was killed by David in 1 Samuel chapter 17, but also by Elhanan in 2 Samuel 21:19 (Hebrew Bible in English (JPS 1917 Edition)) : "And there was again war with the Philistines at Gob; and Elhanan the son of Jaare-oregim the Beth-lehemite slew Goliath the Gittite, the staff of whose spear was like a weaver's beam." (The King James version inserts "brother of" into this passage to resolve this contradiction, but most other English translations retain the original Hebrew). The Chronicler appears not to have believed the story of David slaying Goliath, so omitted the story entirely.Since the story of Goliath was really just a legend we can not expect to find Goliath's skull on Golgotha or anywhere.

Did one of Goliath's brothers have different colored eyes?
Goliath the Gittite was a legendary giant who fought on the side of the Philistines, who occupied the rich coastal plains of Palestine, from Egypt to about a far north as modern Tel Aviv. Two conflicting stories in the Bible are evidence that Goliath was a 'bogy-man' of legend, rather than a real person. 1 Samuel chapter 30 reports that the future king, David, killed Goliath. But 2 Samuel 21:19 says that Elhanan killed the same Goliath. 1 Chronicles, written probably a hundred years after the Deuteronomist history (which includes the Books of Samuel) and apparently dependent on the Deuteronomist history , attempted to resolve this in two ways. First, there is no mention of David killing Goliath, even though the Book of Kings presents this at the most important single feat leading to David being accepted as a potential king. Second, at 20:5, the book says that Lahmi (Elhanan) killed the brother of Goliath. So, the biblical evidence points to Goliath not really having existed, as does the archaeological evidence. If Goliath was just a myth, it is not really possible to say whether his brother had different coloured eyes. Any legendary tradition about the colour of his eyes is just speculation.
