Today's lesson focused on David and Goliath. Mercer reviewed material that detailed the story of David and Goliath. He read about how Goliath was portrayed in the Bible and described as the Philistine giant slain by David, renowned for his courage. The Philistines had come up to make war against Saul, and this warrior came forth day by day to challenge to single combat. Mercer spent the remainder of class reviewing fun facts about Hebrew culture and listening to Hebrew music. Mercer was on task.
