King David had several sons, as mentioned in the Bible. Some of his well-known sons include:
- Amnon: He was the firstborn son of David, born in Hebron. He is known for his ill-fated love for his half-sister Tamar, which ultimately led to his death at the hands of his half-brother Absalom.
- Kileab (also known as Daniel): Kileab is mentioned briefly in the Bible as the son of David and Abigail, the widow of Nabal.
- Absalom: He is one of the most famous sons of David. Absalom rebelled against his father and attempted to take the throne for himself. His rebellion led to a significant conflict and his eventual death during the battle.
- Solomon: Solomon is perhaps the most well-known son of David. He succeeded his father as king and is remembered for his wisdom and the construction of the First Temple in Jerusalem. He is also known for the story of his judgment involving two women and a baby.
These are just a few of King David’s sons, as mentioned in the Bible. There were other sons as well, but these are some of the more prominent ones.
