David ran down his foe, reaching into his bag for a stone. He loaded his sling and whirled it over his head until it fairly whistled. Goliath, perhaps close behind his shield-bearer, advanced toward David. Goliath's great height may actually have been a disadvantage for him. since a shield-bearer of normal size could hardly have a shield high enough to protect the giant's head. Ahd that is where Davide aimed. - 1 SAMUEL 17:41.
David released his stone. Imagine the silence as it hurtled toward its mark. Jehovah doubtless made sure that David would not have to fling another one. The stone struck home, sinking into Goliath's forehead. The colossus topped to the earth, facedown! The shield-bearer likely fled in terror. David approached, took Goliath's own sword, and cut off the giant's head with it. - 1 SAMUEL 17:48-51.
