Notes

1 David probably selected one stone for Goliath and four more for each of Goliath’s brothers. The four brothers of Goliath (2S. 2S. 21:22) included Ishi-Benob (2S. 2S. 21:16), Saph or Sippai (2S. 2S. 21:18; 1Chr. 1Chr. 20:4), Lahmi (2S. 2S. 21:19; 2Chr. 2Chr. 20:5) and an unnamed brother (2S. 2S. 21:20-21; 1Chr. 1Chr. 20:6-7). Along with Goliath, who was killed by David (1S. 1S. 17:4, 1S. 17:49-50), there were five brothers (1S. 1S. 17:40) of the same father, a giant from Gath (2S. 2S. 21:22; 1Chr. 1Chr. 20:8).
