David and Goliath: Did we Understand it?


Greetings to all! I suppose we all think we understand or understood the story of David and Goliath in the Bible. A friend recently shared this video of Malcolm Gladwell's ideas on Revisionist History. Anyhow, I don't want to write much and allow you all to be the judges. Enjoy the video!

Acromegaly! It seems these Philistines were taking advantage of the disabled. Goliath was most likely the underdog.

Appearances can deceive!

I'm no sociologist, but based on my observations of human behavior for the past few decades, it's possible that Goliath's own size also made him a bit delusional. That's probably why he was taunting the Israelite army. Sadly, he was defeated by someone that wasn't deceived by appearances.
