What is the theme of david and goliath story?
Samson can be addressed as a tragic hero. He found love in Delilah,... the tragic part is that Delilah was only using him - and for what is worst, money. So for me, the theme is about betrayal and trust.
What reason did King Saul give David for why David could not go out to fight Goliath?
Saul didn't want David to go because he young and, in Saul's mind, inexperienced. In 1 Samuel 17:33 Saul says, "You are not able to go out against this Philistine and fight him; you are only a young man, and he has been a warrior from his youth."

Bane. Bane had a venom but Goliath fought David as a giant. Goliath is weaker. Bane is smarter. Plus, Bane could wreck Goliath's armor. Goliath is even worse.

What is the importance of the story of David and Goliath?
Another episode, at 2 Samuel 21:19 casts further light on the legend of Goliath, saying that Elhanan killed Goliath. The Hebrew Bible in English (JPS 1917 Edition) says:
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 (KJV) translation has added 'the brother of' to this account [in italics to indicate that this was not an exact translation], but most other English translations of the Book of Samuel seem to have continued with the Hebrew Bible version. This begins to suggest that the story of David and Goliath was a legend without actual historical foundation and therefore that its importance was in the perception that later Hebrews had of a perceived glorious past.
The Book of Chronicles does not mention David's victory over Goliath although it is essentially a post-Exilic rewrite of the Books of Samuel and Kings, and therefore does not attribute his kingship to this famous victory. This suggests that the Chronicler either did not believe the story to be true or did not regard it as at all important.
