| | | Features: DVD, Aspect Ratio 1.33:1, French, English, Spanish, Subtitled David is a simple shepherd boy chosen as king of Israel under the watchful eyes of the prophets Samuel and Nathan. His rise to power is met with tests of adversity -- from the battle with the Philistine giant Goliath to personal threat from King Saul. David's 40-year rule is driven by unstoppable ego, unwavering desire, a drunken sense of entitlement and plagued by tremendous battles, betrayals and loss -- from his forbidden and passionate love with Bathsheba to his struggles with enemies both within and without.
 Editor's Note
 The sixth entry in Turner's Bible Collection, this video will thrill Christians with its portrayal of DAVID, the young shepherd who would go on to defend a nation. Mirroring FORREST GUMP and the films of Hal Ashby, David is a simple man who rises to greatness as he is chosen to be the ruler of Israel. In the process, he defends his people by slaying a giant and becoming a military legend. Nathaniel Parker plays the title character in this television movie of epic scope.
