Meaning
“Beloved”
Davi foi o maior rei de Israel, um homem segundo o coração de Deus. Do hebraico Dawid, que significa "amado" ou "querido" - o nome vem da raiz hebraica dod, que significa "amado." Como um garoto pastor, ele derrotou Golias com fĂ© em Deus. Como rei, uniu Israel e estabeleceu JerusalĂ©m como sua capital. Davi foi um guerreiro, poeta e mĂşsico que escreveu muitos Salmos. Apesar de suas falhas, incluindo o adultĂ©rio com Bate-Seba, o arrependimento genuĂno de Davi e seu amor por Deus o tornaram um modelo de fĂ©. Jesus Ă© chamado de Filho de Davi, cumprindo profecias sobre o trono eterno de Davi.
