it is interesting that several posts see David as a "type" of an Israel that can be flawed but loved by God.
In my reading, I don't see such of a happy ending for David or his descendents. 2 Samuel 11 and following show the downfall of his house,and 1-2 Kings are in many ways a tragic story of flawed Davidic and non-Davidic leaders. what do you make out of this larger story of the DtrH?
