Saul and David by Rembrandt
After the historic victory, David gained national fame with King Saul’s jealousy growing daily.
1 Samuel 18:10-11
The next day an evil spirit of G-d gripped Saul and he began to rave in his house, while David was playing [the lyre], as he did daily. Saul had a spear in his hand, and Saul threw the spear, thinking to pin David to the wall. But David eluded him twice.
