Why were some kings so righteous and others so evil? What can we learn from King David's life? And how can we understand his relationship with Shaul, Michal, Yo'av, and Batsheva, among others?\u003cdl align=\"left\"\u003eIn King David and the Kings of Israel, Rabbi Yehonasan Gefen, a popular writer and close talmid of Rav Yitzchak Berkovits, addresses these and many other questions pertaining to the kings of Israel - especially focusing on King David - and draws on the profound insights of the Sages and the commentaries to glean vital lessons about their lives and role as king.\u003cdl\u003eThis book delves deeply into the characters of great kings such as David, Shlomo, Chizkiyahu, and Yoshiyahu and those of the most maligned of kings, such as Yeravam, Achav, and Menashe, focusing on the most significant aspects unique to each king. Its readers will develop a whole new understanding of the kings of Israel and the overall institution of the kingship of Israel.\u003cdl\u003eCovering a timespan of hundreds of years, King David and the Kings of Israel demonstrates how the Torah remains as vividly relevant as ever.\u003cdl\u003eKing David and the Kings of Israel is Rabbi Gefen's fifth book. He has also written for Hamodia and The Jewish Tribune, and his popular weekly column on Aish.com inspires people across the spectrum of Jewish observance with the vibrancy and beauty of Torah.\u003cdl\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eThe episodes described in Tanach are not there for the sake of understanding personalities, but rather for learning lessons about our own lives. Rabbi Gefen has captured those lessons.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cdiv align=\"right\"\u003e- Rav Yitzchak Berkovits, Rosh Yeshivah, Aish HaTorah\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"12\" style=\"display:none\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdl dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\n\u003cstyle\u003etable{border-collapse:collapse}td{font-weight:bold;font-family:sans-serif;font-size:16px;border-style:solid;border-width:1px}th{font-family:sans-serif;font-size:16px;border-style:solid;border-width:1px}\u003c\/style\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCode:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"font-weight:normal;text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cdiv id=\"1\"\u003e9781988022574\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"font-weight:normal;text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cdiv id=\"2\"\u003eRabbi Yehonasan Gefen\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"font-weight:normal;text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cdiv id=\"6\"\u003e1988022576\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"font-weight:normal;text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cdiv id=\"5\"\u003e9781988022574\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFormat:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"font-weight:normal;text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cdiv id=\"9\"\u003eHardcover\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePages:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"font-weight:normal;text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cdiv id=\"7\"\u003e182\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"font-weight:normal;text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cdiv id=\"8\"\u003e6.3\" x 9.3\"\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"font-weight:normal;text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cdiv id=\"11\"\u003eFeldheim Publishers\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDate:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"font-weight:normal;text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cdiv id=\"10\"\u003e8\/31\/2020\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/dl\u003e\n\u003c\/dl\u003e\n\u003c\/dl\u003e\n\u003c\/dl\u003e\n\u003c\/dl\u003e\n\u003c\/dl\u003e\n\u003c\/dl\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Rabbi Yehonasan Gefen","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51020105220264,"sku":"9781988022574","price":12.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0534\/9765\/9560\/files\/9781988022574.jpg?v=1736224520","url":"https:\/\/judaicasquare.com\/products\/king-david-and-the-kings-of-israel","provider":"Judaica Square","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
