1 Samuel 17
The David & Goliath Crossword
Five smooth stones from the brook, a sling, and a shepherd boy who refused the king's armour — the duel in the valley of Elah is Scripture's great underdog story. The David and Goliath puzzle builds its grid from the details: the brass helmet of the giant, King Saul watching from the lines, the shield-bearer walking ahead.
When the last square fills in, the puzzle ends on David's answer to the Philistine — “I come to thee in the name of the LORD of hosts.” A 7×7 mini, The Shepherd and the Giant, retells it in quick form, and King David continues the story into the Psalms.
