02 — Person: David

Number: 02

Person: David

Action: Slinging a stone at Goliath

Object: Sling and stone

Scripture connection: 1 Samuel 17:49–50 — David took a stone, slung it, and struck the Philistine on the forehead; Goliath fell.

Memory hook: The shepherd boy who became king; the stone that secured the "house" of Israel. Bet = house — David later desired to build the Lord a house (2 Samuel 7).

Why this number? 2 maps to Bet (ב) — house, container. David is the king who wanted to build the Lord's house (2 Samuel 7:2) and who secured the "house" of Israel with a stone against Goliath. Second king of Israel; Bethlehem (house of bread) is his city.
