Some scholars believe that the account of King David was also coloured by the desire of those in the kingdom of Judah to be associated with the brief period of military expansion. They say that this really occurred under King Omri of the northern kingdom of Israel, but was written in the scriptures back into the time so that King David of the United Monarchy achieved those victories. In the Bible, David was the forerunner of the Judahite kings, so his victories reflected on the people of Judah. Meanwhile, the kingdom of Israel had been destroyed in 722 BCE and its kings could not propagate a rival version of events, but nevertheless the Samaritans never accepted the Books of Samuel and Kings.

At time of this writing, March 27th, 2009, Sir David is still among the living.
King David's first six brothers are listed in 1 Chronicles 2:13-15: Eliab, Abinadab, Shimea, Nethanel, Raddai and Ozem. His other brother is not named anywhere in the Bible. Elsewhere, we learn that David had a brother named Elihu (1 Chr. 27:18), which may be the name of his seventh brother, or which may simply be a variant form of "Eliab." Also, the Bible speaks of "Shammah/Shimeah/Shimei" as David's brother, but all these are most likely variants of "Shimea" (without doubt this is the case with at least "Shammah" [1 Sam. 17:13]). If his seventh brother is not named in the genealogies, it may be because he died without children.
Haile Selassie, the former Emperor of Ethiopia, is often claimed to be a direct descendant of King David through a lineage established by the Solomonic dynasty. According to Ethiopian tradition, this lineage traces back to the Queen of Sheba and King Solomon. However, the historical accuracy of these claims is debated among scholars, as the genealogical connections are based more on legend and tradition than on verifiable historical evidence.

God told Solomon on his inauguration as King of Israel: "And if thou wilt walk in my ways, to keep my statutes and my commandments, as thy father David did walk, then I will lengthen thy days." 1 Kings 3:14. In Deuteronomy 17:17, God had instructed Israel regarding their King, among other responsibilities that he should not do, that "neither shall he multiply wives to himself, that his heart turn not away." Solomon did not observe this commandment and the results were his defection from God: "And he had seven hundred wives, princesses, and three hundred concubines: and his wives turned away his heart. For it came to pass, when Solomon was old, that his wives turned away his heart after other gods: and his heart was not perfect with the LORD his God, as was the heart of David his father." 1 Kings 11:3,4. So, he became very prideful and drifted away to the religions of his many wives. It is evident that he had a weakness for women and just did what they did to please them.
They were monotheistic...or at least monolatrous (a prototype of monotheism).
No one. The Hebrews did not build pyramids. This is a strange new myth that has sprung up among Americans and Europeans. The Torah says the Hebrews built the store-cities of Pit'om and Ra'amses. It doesn't mention pyramids at all.
