00:19Previously on House of David
00:21The king is losing himself
00:23I recognize him less every day
00:27There are those to worship other gods
00:30I need your help
00:31Listen, it is beautiful
00:34Perhaps I can write a song for you someday
00:36I need someone followed
00:37Whose footsteps do you wish me to trace?
00:40Samuel
00:40David, the Lord's anointed
00:43Anointed?
00:44As what?
00:45King of Israel
01:15Hello?
01:18Hello?
01:25What is this place?
01:33No!
01:51What did I see?
01:55Something happened to me when you poured that oil.
02:00I saw something.
02:02I went somewhere.
02:06The spirit.
02:08It rests on you now, as it did Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, and Moses before you.
02:16No, I don't understand.
02:18You do not need to understand something to feel its power.
02:22Forgive me, but Israel already has a king.
02:26A good one.
02:27Perhaps you meant to pick him.
02:29I did not pick you.
02:31In fact, I tried to convince Hashem he was wrong.
02:37God does not see only what you are.
02:41He sees what you will become.
02:45He sees...
02:48What's wrong?
02:51David...
02:53There is great power in you, I feel it.
02:57Great capacity, passions that rage in many directions.
03:03And this will be your blessing.
03:06And this will be your curse.
03:10This is what I see.
03:13Hey!
03:14Wait.
03:15Stay with us.
03:17I cannot be seen here.
03:19It's not safe for you.
03:21Well, then let me come with you.
03:23That would not be safe for me.
03:26Why?
03:26If Saul hears on this, he will try to kill us both.
03:33Oh.
03:34David, I will return soon with answers, I hope.
03:56Samuel has gone mad.
03:57What if he's not?
03:58He has gone mad.
03:59What if he's not?
03:59Are you listening to me?
04:00Boys.
04:00Of course he has.
04:00It's the words of Hashem.
04:02Stop!
04:05Everything he says comes true.
04:10Words I've heard spoken of this man since I was a boy.
04:14So God intends us to die?
04:16I do not know what God intends.
04:18Father, I know you respect him.
04:19That he led Israel before the time of kings.
04:22But all men age.
04:23All men fail.
04:24He is not any man.
04:25He is the prophet of the Most High.
04:27He is dangerous.
04:29And no one can know he was here.
04:30Someone will have seen him in the village.
04:32I must go to the elders.
04:35I must...
04:36No, no, no, no, no.
04:37They cannot know this.
04:38Yav, this is my home.
04:41I will choose how to protest.
04:43You listen to me, Father.
04:44All of you.
04:47I have struck men down for less than this, as have you have been to have.
04:51Is that how we wish to die?
04:53As traitors?
04:58So, your loyalty to this king is greater than your loyalty to the one true God?
05:07Or to your father's house?
05:10No.
05:11Hmm?
05:11It is not.
05:13And that is the point.
05:16Father.
05:17Brothers.
05:20No one can know of this.
05:26What do we do with David?
05:37Oh, my God.
05:57Who are you?
06:02Who are you?
06:08What is this place?
06:11Hey, pick up.
06:12What?
06:14What do you want?
06:16The family have come to a decision, and I am to deliver it to you.
06:24You're going to banish me to Philistia?
06:25No, we are going to sell you to Egypt, actually.
06:29And you can play for all the old women there, and we can get a good price for you, I
06:33think.
06:35Trouble is, I can see that option actually being considered.
06:46You know my purpose is to protect this family and to redeem it.
06:50I do.
06:52Then I need you to stay in these hills.
06:55If only for a time.
06:58You do this for me.
07:00Brother, please.
07:07For what?
07:09For calling me brother.
07:20But if somehow, Eliab, if somehow God did intend for this too.
07:26No, no, no.
07:27He did not.
07:29But what if Samuel...
07:30The seer is beyond his time.
07:32You don't know...
07:32You will not breathe a word of this ever.
07:36Samuel's visit never happened.
07:38But it did happen.
07:39And if it were known, the king would order you killed.
07:42Along with all of us.
07:43Is that what you want?
07:48Soldiers.
07:52Anilat.
07:53You stay here.
08:07Odds from the house of Saul.
08:13Cousin.
08:15What is this?
08:16It is a summons.
08:19Signed with the king's own ring.
08:21Let's ask it to let you come.
08:21Have you done that?
08:22No.
08:24It's not for you.
08:26What?
08:29It's for David.
08:32David.
08:59I asked to be by myself.
09:03Hours ago.
09:05It's me, father.
09:08Allow me to stay.
09:10No king should be alone.
09:12To be a king is to be alone.
09:14Well, how can I ease your burdens?
09:23Stop angering your mother.
09:28Oh, you asked too much.
09:35What if you took a day off?
09:38With me?
09:39I know a type of her not far from here.
09:42Wine and women.
09:45Shh.
09:49You expect me to disrespect your mother?
09:52No.
09:53No.
09:53But you can still look.
09:56It's bad.
10:05Father, I had a thought about Gibea.
10:10What would make this city a grand capital?
10:14I've been thinking much about it lately.
10:16Speak.
10:19I believe it should be more than a stronghold.
10:23It should be a destination for our people.
10:25So, we build grand theaters for the arts.
10:28We bring the greatest performers and spectacles from Egypt and even beyond.
10:33Entertain them.
10:34And they will love you for it.
10:37And father, this will be the ultimate distraction.
10:43Hmm.
10:47This is a wise idea.
10:52And I was thinking that, uh...
10:56I could lead this effort.
10:58Serve a purpose.
11:01But...
11:01Leadership is not your strength.
11:12And, uh...
11:13Had I been born ten months earlier, perhaps I would have this...
11:16And, uh...
11:18It is strength.
11:21Son, it is not about when you were born.
11:23It is who you are.
11:25Then who am I?
11:27To you.
11:28In time, you will find your purpose.
11:30But for now, please leave me to mine.
11:33But, father, this is a chance for me to find that purpose.
11:35For once...
11:37Shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh.
11:51May the king live forever.
12:05May the king live forever.
12:07And, uh...
12:10Stand here!
12:12Stand here!
12:13Stand here!
12:13Slow down.
12:14Slow down.
12:15What is so urgent?
12:18Yair.
12:20The elder of the tribe was done.
12:23I must speak to you, my friend.
12:25Privately.
12:26Saul, please.
12:27Why am I denied?
12:28You will stop and address him as your king.
12:30I will not stop you, mind your place, Avner.
12:33The house of Saul has betrayed me!
12:36Avner, it's all right.
12:41Speak.
12:42How half will betrayed you.
12:44Your highness,
12:46God blessed my family with only one beautiful daughter,
12:50Dina.
12:51She was a prized bride,
12:54fit for a nobleman.
12:56But now that is out of the question.
12:59And what does that have to do with our family?
13:01Your brother defiled her.
13:05And how can you be sure it was him?
13:07I am no liar!
13:08My daughter defiles it!
13:14So?
13:21What is this?
13:22Where are you going?
13:24What is this?
13:25I am not finished!
13:26I demand that you stay!
13:28Demand?
13:31Who do you think you are?
13:32Brother.
13:33You're not needed.
13:35Seems I am.
13:36You shamed my daughter and my house!
13:40Which one is your daughter again?
13:41Is she the one with the lumpy back
13:44or the eyes that don't match?
13:45Eshpal,
13:46you apologize.
13:47Now.
13:49I'm sorry.
13:50I am.
13:51That your daughter's eyes don't match.
13:52I...
13:54Just...
13:55To defile this man's daughter.
13:58I mean,
13:59probably.
14:00It is your brother's duty
14:01to marry my daughter
14:04and join our houses.
14:06I certainly am not about to marry
14:07a defiled woman.
14:09How dare you!
14:10Amends must be made.
14:12And unless they are,
14:14the tribe of Dan
14:15will no longer be loyal to your house.
14:18Yair.
14:19No.
14:19We can discuss this.
14:20No.
14:20Let me simplify this for you.
14:22Eshpal houses
14:23will never be joined.
14:24Yair of Dan.
14:25Eshpal.
14:26I'll be quiet.
14:26Then I invoke the law of Moses.
14:29It is written.
14:31Ah, you read now.
14:32You must marry her
14:34or be stoned to death.
14:36Who speaks of death
14:38in this palace?
14:41Where is the king?
14:43The king sends me.
14:45I will speak only to power.
14:48I am power enough.
14:51You invoke the law of Moses
14:53that my son
14:54must be stoned.
14:56We are all under the law of Moses.
14:59Even the king.
15:00Yes.
15:01Yet the law of Moses
15:02would also demand
15:03that your daughter
15:04be stoned
15:06alongside my son.
15:08Is this something you offer?
15:14Do you not know the law?
15:21I will speak to the king.
15:24Return tomorrow
15:25and we shall settle this.
15:53This order has no marriage.
15:56The king has taken enough.
15:57Father, stop.
15:58I will deal with this.
16:05What is this about?
16:07You didn't tell me.
16:08You have.
16:09He is my brother.
16:10He must know something.
16:11I do not question the orders.
16:13I carry them out.
16:14Family or not.
16:15It would be good for you
16:16to remember that.
16:34Cousin.
16:35Cousin.
16:54I am not scared of the line anymore.
16:59No, you won't be scared either.
17:04Father, watch the sheep for me.
17:23There is no need for goodbyes.
17:25I will see you again soon.
17:35There they have.
17:41Supplies for the road.
17:46Do what you must
17:49protect him
17:50and this house.
18:04Dad.
18:05I will see you again soon.
18:20Come on.
18:37Oh, which one is she going to move?
18:41Which one?
18:42Quiet.
18:44Okay, go ahead.
18:49What do you think they're going to do to you?
18:54They? What can they do? I'm the prince.
18:56There are laws you have to follow, Ishbal.
19:00Yes.
19:01So, they will give him some cattle, buy back his loyalty,
19:07to not be forgotten, whatever.
19:12I saw mother today.
19:14She was upset.
19:16Well, I'm sure she'll forgive me.
19:19She always does.
19:21You can't do that.
19:22Why not?
19:23It's cheating.
19:24You touch this one, you have to move it.
19:27I...
19:28I...
19:28I have to move it.
19:30You have to.
19:31I have...
19:32Murab, I don't have to do anything.
19:44Take your turn.
19:47What are you waiting for?
19:50Ish, I know her.
19:52I...
19:52I know Dina.
19:54And I know her father, too.
19:57You really humiliated him.
19:58And if he can't get revenge on you, on us,
20:02then he's going to take it out on her.
20:06What is this?
20:07What are you doing?
20:08What's your point?
20:11My point is there are consequences.
20:14Oh.
20:14And people get hurt.
20:16Consequences.
20:16I'm trying to look out for you.
20:18Thank you so much for enlightening me.
20:21Now I understand.
20:23Now I know.
20:23Really not.
20:24Who are you to tell me how to behave?
20:26I'm sorry.
20:26I don't know why I said that.
20:28Let's just play.
20:29Let's play.
20:30It's my turn.
20:34You can continue playing, whatever.
20:37Find me.
20:37I'll play with her.
20:38I'm...
21:08I'll play with her.
21:14What?
21:18I made an error in judgment.
21:20Why is everyone so surprised?
21:21It's not like I killed a servant.
21:23Stop this.
21:24Why must you shame this house?
21:25Oh, so that we're not going to talk about.
21:27We're just going to pretend like that never happened,
21:29but I'm the black sheep.
21:30Yes, you are the black sheep.
21:31Because you do this to yourself.
21:32You talk too much.
21:33You get yourself in trouble every time.
21:36You will speak no further.
21:37But, Mother, I have so much more to say.
21:46You asked what you are to me.
21:49And the truth is,
21:51from the day you first drew breath,
21:54you are nothing but the curse!
22:09Leave us.
22:31Remember when you were a boy?
22:33We used to go to look at the goats.
22:38Of course.
22:43On one of those trips,
22:44there was a particularly blue sky.
22:48And you asked
22:51what if we could go swimming in it.
22:59So we jumped around,
23:01scooping our arms through the air.
23:04You jumped.
23:07Too high,
23:08and you fell.
23:09And scraped your knee.
23:15I kissed it
23:16and promised to make it feel better.
23:18And so we lay down in the grass
23:21and
23:23looked at the shapes in the sky.
23:36Do you remember
23:36what you told me that day?
23:40You said that I was your favorite.
23:45But later that night,
23:47I had to wash the wound.
23:49It hurt,
23:50and you cried,
23:51and you cried.
23:52I tried to explain
23:53why it needed cleaning,
23:54but
23:57you said that you hated me.
24:03That night,
24:05I cried too.
24:08I was your mother.
24:11I'm sorry.
24:13No, no.
24:16I am sorry.
24:21Because now I need to be in another wound.
24:39The ear,
24:41elder of the tribe of Dan.
24:45I also wish to invoke the law of Moses.
24:49I choose
24:51to banish my son
24:53to the refuge city of Endor.
24:55Endor?
24:57No.
24:58Endor, mother,
24:59have you lost your mind?
25:00That is a place for criminals and outcasts.
25:02You cannot.
25:02You shall appoint for yourself
25:04cities of refuge
25:05so that the one who trespasses
25:06may flee there.
25:08Those cities will serve
25:09as refuge for the Avenger.
25:11This is the law,
25:12and this is what I choose.
25:13Please, mother.
25:14Gods.
25:15No, mother.
25:15Mother, please.
25:16This will spare blood
25:17from both our houses.
25:19No.
25:20No!
25:21Once he enters this city,
25:23he can never return
25:24without paying his debt.
25:26I am aware.
25:27You know what this palace was
25:28before Father Ticket?
25:29It was a prison.
25:31You think you can hang
25:32tapestries on these stone walls
25:33and make it something different?
25:34It was never a home.
25:36I'm glad to be free of it.
25:45No.
25:46No.
25:47No.
25:48No, no, no, no.
25:49Mother,
25:49there must be something you can do.
25:51You can do something.
25:52Please.
25:53Mother.
25:54No!
25:56No!
26:07I'm sorry, sister.
26:09Stop!
26:10Hey, enough.
26:13Sorry, sister.
26:15Guess you were right.
26:16You're coming back, though, right?
26:19I don't know.
26:21What do you mean you don't know?
26:25I hope you find the happiness you deserve.
26:29Hope you die in a ditch.
26:41I'll miss you, too.
26:47All right.
26:48All right.
26:49I'm sorry.
26:50Please.
26:54I'll see you again.
26:56See you again, sister.
27:12See you again?
27:14See you again?
27:25See you again?
27:28See you again?
27:51I don't know, I don't know, I don't know.
28:21I don't know, I don't know.
29:07I don't know, I don't know.
29:10I don't know.
29:10You have.
29:14I suggest you do not defy a commanding officer.
29:17I do not wish to defy you, but I am not leaving my brother's side.
29:20Not until I know what this is about.
29:27You are.
29:33Let's go.
30:02What do you, Queen Shepard?
30:08Your name, David?
30:12My queen, if I may, why is he here?
30:19Your brother.
30:24You have gained quite the reputation.
30:29I am anxious to hear you play.
30:33To play?
30:38That will be all.
30:40Fetch him some of the clothes.
30:42No, no.
30:43You stay.
30:44She said to go.
30:45Yeah.
30:58When my poor husband was at four, he was bitten by a serpent in his sleep.
31:08The healers say the venom caused an unusual illness, where the symptoms are more of the mind than the body.
31:24A friend of mine, a wise one, said she had a vision of a lion.
31:32And she reminded me that in Egypt, the lion, Beth, is the god of music.
31:41Forgive me, my queen, but I serve no god but Hashem.
31:51But we can learn from others, can't we?
31:55Truth can be found in many places.
32:11But understand this.
32:13My husband's illness must be kept within these walls.
32:18Otherwise, you jeopardize the king's privacy.
32:21And the price for that is significant.
32:30You have nothing to worry about.
32:32I have been insignificant my whole life.
32:39Good.
32:46Get down!
32:48Stop it!
32:48Stop it!
32:50You're next.
32:54The tax admin proposed would allow for new projects.
32:59We would be able to establish a capital city much sooner.
33:03You didn't even consult me.
33:04Just made a choice and sent him away.
33:07Would you prefer he'd be stolen to death?
33:09Play.
33:10That year, you're threatening me and my family if I was there.
33:14As you weren't there.
33:16Take the head of any man who tried to seize my throne.
33:19Any man!
33:21You'll speak with Avner about this another time.
33:23No!
33:24No!
33:27One thing might be for my life.
33:29Let you sack me now.
33:32One thing might be for my life.
33:34Father.
33:36Are you all right?
33:37Stop!
33:38I'm sorry.
33:39Bye.
33:39Stop!
33:40Hey, look at me.
33:41You made look in my eyes.
33:43I have made my choice.
33:45Take a deep breath.
33:46All right?
33:47I'll do it with you.
33:47No more, Robert!
33:54You may not recall, but I heard you play at the wedding.
33:58And you were wonderful.
34:00That is why I asked the Queen to bring you here.
34:03So just play like that again.
34:05You chose me?
34:08I did.
34:10But I've never played anywhere like this.
34:12I don't know who to play to.
34:14Well, then just...
34:16Just play to me.
34:20Hmm?
34:21Hmm.
34:34David, play.
35:00Oh, my God.
