Jonathan

A brave warrior in his own right who once attacked a Philistine garrison with just his armor-bearer (1 Samuel 14). But he's best known for his deep, loyal friendship with David — even though David was destined to take the throne Jonathan would have inherited. He protected David from Saul at great personal risk. Their bond is described as 'surpassing the love of women' (2 Samuel 1:26). He died alongside his father at Mount Gilboa.
