1720 Life of King David Illustrated Goliath Bible Psalms ISRAEL MAP French ART
Abbe Choisy’s “History and Life of David” is a rare, early 18th-century history of King David of the Old Testament and King of Israel. The contents of this book are important in themselves, but the draw of this book is the impressive woodcut engravings throughout depicting the life of David – views from his childhood as a musician and shepherd, his battle with Goliath and the Philistines, and when he heard of the death of Absalom. It also features a huge, folding map of Israel at the front.
