The foundation stones of a large 10th Century BCE building, According to archaeologist Eilat Mazar, who heads the excavation, this building was a large public building, and could only have been erected by a major kingdom. The dating of the structure sets it at the time of the rule of King Solomon or King David, and the structure therefore serves as direct evidence of the existence of their realm and its importance.
The Coenaculum is a building on Mount Zion in Jerusalem that is the traditional site of the tomb of King David. The building also houses the Room of the Last Supper.

Illustration from "La Sainte Bible : Ancien Testament . . . / Compositions par J.-James Tissot"; with preface by Antonin Gilbert Sertillanges (1863-1948), introduction by Maurice de Brunoff (1861-1937) and the translation into French of Isaac-Louis Lemaistre de Saci (1613-1684). 2 volumes. Paris: M. de Brunoff & Cie, 1904. The illustrations were originated by James Tissot (1836-1902) who sketched as he read Scripture.
The edition, of which 561 copies were printed, contains 360 mounted colour, black-and-white and duo-tone illustrations in the text and 40 plates in three states: sepia-tone, partly hand-coloured, and finished coloured state. The plates are protected with captioned tissue-guards. The paper size is 15.75 x 13 ins; image size varies (circa 8.5 x 5.5 ins).
The paintings for all 400 Illustrations were based exclusively on the complete sketches (the inspiration being entirely Tissot's). The first 200 illustrations covering the Book of Genesis through to the story of Jephthah's daughter in the Book of Judges were painted by Tissot. The last remaining 200 illustrations were painted after Tissot's death in 1902 by Henri Bellery-Desfontaines, Auguste François Gorguet, Charles Hoffbauer, Louis van Parys, Michel Simonidy and Georges Bertin Scott.

Victorian glass in Ely cathedral. This window by Francis Wilson Oliphant (1818 - 1859) shows King David playing his harp and surrounded by musicians and choristers.
In memory of Thornton Warner Clogstoun, who was born around 1843 in Trinidad, West Indies, and became a lieutenant in the 9th East Norfolk Regiment, depicts David King of Israel and Jonathan son of Saul. The modern face of Jonathan could be that of the lieutenant.

This photo shows the close proximity that three religions reside in Jerusalem. The bottom floor is Davids Tomb, a Jewish holy site; the top floor is the Cenacle or the Upper Room, a Christian holy site; and on top of all this is a Muslim minaret. The clock tower of the Dormition Church is also visible.

Construction of the present cathedral began in 1075 under the reign of Alfonso VI of Castile (1040–1109) and the patronage of bishop Diego Peláez. It was built according to the same plan as the monastic brick church of Saint Sernin in Toulouse, probably the greatest Romanesque edifice in France. It was built mostly in granite. Construction was halted several times and, according to the Liber Sancti Iacobi, the last stone was laid in 1122. But by then, the construction of the cathedral was certainly not finished. The cathedral was consecrated in 1128 in the presence of king Alfonso IX of Leon.
The church of Saint Andrew is the parish church for the small Somerset town of Wiveliscombe. The window at the east end of the south aisle is one of two windows in the church by C E Kempe and Co Ltd. The window shows the earthly ancestors of Christ as a tree stemming from Jesse. The window dates from 1922. This picture shows a close up of King David.
