David's Citadel - Jerusalem365

By David, a psalm: God's is the  earth and its fullness, the inhabited  Land and those who dwell in it. PSALMS (24:1) לְדָוִד מִזְמוֹר לַי-הוָה הָאָרֶץ  וּמְלוֹאָהּ תֵּבֵל וְיֹשְׁבֵי בָה תהילים כ’’ד:א le-da-VEED meez-MORE la-doe-NIE ha-ah-RETZ oo-me-loe-AH tay-VEL ve-yoe-she-VEY vah

Jerusalem Inspiration Year after year, one of the most popular boys  names is ‘David.’  You might rightly presume that  the name’s origin goes back to King David, but do  you know what ‘David’ means in Hebrew? David  comes from the most ancient Hebrew word for  "beloved" - dode - as it says, "I am to my beloved  and my beloved is to me” - ah-NEE le-doh-DEE  ve-doh-DEE lee, אני לדודי ודודי לי (Song of Songs 6:3).  David, the humble shepherd and poet who rose  to become King of Israel, was beloved by God for  his piety and devotion.
