EDITORS COMMENTS
This image from the 12th century English Psalter, housed in the British Library, presents two significant scenes from the biblical life of David. Above, the young shepherd boy David is shown watching over his flock, with one hand on his sling and the other reaching out to protect a lamb from the jaws of a lion. This scene recalls the famous story from 1 Samuel 17:34-35, where David bravely defends his sheep from the lion and lioness, demonstrating his courage and strength to his father Jesse and the prophet Samuel. Beneath the image, we find another scene from David's life: his anointing by the prophet Samuel. Surrounded by his family, David is depicted with a humble expression as Samuel pours oil over his head, signifying God's choice of David as the future king of Israel. This moment, recorded in 1 Samuel 16:1-13, marks the beginning of David's rise to power and his eventual reign over the united kingdom of Israel and Judah. The intricately detailed illustrations in this English Psalter, which dates from the late 12th or early 13th century, offer a fascinating glimpse into the artistic and religious traditions of the Middle Ages. The scenes of David's life, drawn from the Old Testament, would have served as a visual reminder of the important biblical stories and the role of God in the lives of His people.
