Goliath, the Philistine champion from Gath from 1 Samuel chapter 17, stood 6 cubits and 1 span in height which totals about 9.75 feet or 3 meters.
Note the Greek version and Dead Sea Scroll read this as 4 cubits and 1 span which is 6.75 feet (2 meters). In any case Goliath was a giant of a man and some bible translations indicate his height as almost twice as tall as most men.
Goliath would be approximately 9 feet and 9 inches tall at six cubits.
See 2 Samuel 21:19-20. Some traditional commentaries say that the two verses are both talking about Goliath the Philistine, while others say that verse 20 is talking about one of Goliath's brothers. It is verse 20 which mentions the Philistine who had twenty-four fingers and toes, but does not name him explicitly.
The verse you are referring to is 2 Samuel 21:20 in the KJV Bible. It mentions that there was a man with six fingers on each hand and six toes on each foot, but this is not specifically about Goliath.
A league is 3 miles. The cubit is not an exactly defined length. It is the distance from the elbow to the tip of the middle finger, so MY cubit is 17.25 inches. Using 18" as an average cubit, 2 leagues is 7040 cubits.
The person who died when hit on the forehead by a stone from a sling was Goliath, as recounted in the biblical story of David and Goliath. Goliath was a Philistine giant who was defeated by the young shepherd David using a sling and a stone.
A cubit is a unit of length equal to the length of a person's forearm from the elbow to the fingertips - about a foot and a half or 18" There are .677 cubits in a foot
His height was six cubits and a span: " And there went out a champion out of the camp of the Philistines, named Goliath, of Gath, whose height [was] six cubits and a span." (1Samuel 17.4) This translates to 2.9718 meters. He was near enough to 3 meters tall!
That was Goliath (1 Samuel 17:4).
''And there went out a champion out of the camp of the Philistines, named Goliath, of Gath, whose height was six cubits and a span''.Samuel 17:4
About nine and a half feet. "And there went out a champion out of the camp of the Philistines, named Goliath, of Gath, whose height was six cubits and a span." 1 Samuel 17:4
1Sam:17:4: And there went out a champion out of the camp of the Philistines, named Goliath, of Gath, whose height was six cubits and a span. Goliath was not a king, just a champion of the Philistines.
Goliath in feet was around 10 and a half feet. Og the king was 15 feet.
He was Six cubits tall, which is 18-22 inches Per cubit. So he was about 10 feet tall, and the average weight for a person 5 feet tall is is about 135, but he was a big dude, so he was probably anywhere from 300-400 pounds.
Gath - an ancient city of Palestine east-northeast of Gaza1 Sam 17:4 And there went out a champion out of the camp of the Philistines, named Goliath, of Gath, whose height was six cubits and a span.
144 cubits is about 236.22 feet.
A man who is 60 cubits tall is 90 feet tall!
1Samuel says Goliath's height was six cubits and a span while the Greek translation (Septuagint) says he was four cubits and a span. While the length of a cubit is not precisely known, there is a general consensus that a cubit is measured from the elbow to the tip of the middle finger. Thus, a cubit is somewhere around eighteen inches, plus or minus 10 percent. And a span is approximately nine inches (half the length of a cubit). The Samuel scroll from Qumran, which is in Hebrew, reads the same as the Greek version (6'6"). This implies that the Hebrew from which the Greek translator was working also said that Goliath was "six feet six inches rather than nearly ten feet tall." The Dead Sea Scrolls confirm both the Greek Septuagint and Josephus' Antiquities,the corruption resides in the extant Hebrew. The findings at Qumran suggest that the seemingly impossible height of Goliath (over nine feet tall) resulted from a corruption of the original version of 1 Samuel.
700 cubits equates to about 1,148.3 feet.
