Each text reflects a particular social context, a particular social vision, and a particular community. Thus these stories and poems offer distinctly different `modes of truth` concerning this pivotal biblical figure. The tribe, the family, the state, and the assembly each brought a different agenda to their portrayals of David. Each fashioned different portraits of the one who helped define them and was defined by them.`</abstract> <note type="statement of responsibility">Walter Brueggemann</note> <subject> <topic>David -- King of Israel</topic> </subject> <subject> <topic>Bible -- Old Testament -- Criticism</topic> </subject> <subject> <topic>Bible -- Samuel -- Criticism</topic> </subject> <classification authority="ddc">222.4092</classification> <classification authority="ddc">B889-W23</classification> <identifier type="isbn">0800634616</identifier> <identifier type="uri">https://data.thuviencodoc.org/books/5879/0.jpg</identifier> <location> <url displayLabel="Cover Image">https://data.thuviencodoc.org/books/5879/0.jpg</url> </location> <recordInfo> <recordContentSource authority="marcorg">1</recordContentSource> <recordCreationDate encoding="marc">2021-1</recordCreationDate> <recordChangeDate encoding="iso8601">20260119070359.0</recordChangeDate> </recordInfo> </mods>
