What two biblical incidents tell of Saul meeting David?

A:1 Samuel 16:13 tells of Saul meeting David, son of Jesse, and of Saul anointing David with oil. 1 Samuel 16:21 says that, Saul having sent again for David, David came to him and became his armour bearer. 1 Samuel 17:31-32 says that David came to Saul, proposing to slay Goliath, and Saul gave David his own armour. 1 Samuel 17:58 then says that after killing Goliath, David came again to Saul, but Saul did not even recognise him. The author of this particular narrative seems unaware that elsewhere in the book, David had already been the king's armour bearer and then his personal musician.

What point did David stop writing in the Bible?

The only Book attributed to David is the Psalms. The Book of Psalms is not in chronological order. We may surmise that a Psalm such as number 18 was the last, or among the last, since it has the words "of David the servant of the Lord,who spoke unto the Lord the words of this songin the day that the Lord delivered him from the hand of all his enemies, and from the hand of Saul."Another clear contender is Psalm 72, which has the words "The prayers of David the son of Jesse are ended."Although Psalm 72 is "of Solomon," tradition states that David wrote it, concerning Solomon (Rashi commentary).
