Was David the seventh or the eighth son of Jesse?
“And Jesse begat his first-born Eliab, and Abinadab the second, and Shimma the third, Nethaniel the fourth, Raddai the fifth, Ozem the sixth, David the seventh” (1 Chron. ii, 13–15).
“Again, Jesse made seven of his sons to pass before Samuel. And Samuel said unto Jesse, The Lord hath not chosen these. And Samuel said unto Jesse, are here all thy children? And he said, There remaineth yet the youngest [David]” (1 Sam. xvi, 10, 11).

Who gave David the shewbread to eat when he was a fugitive from Saul?
“Then came David to Nob to Abimelech the [High] priest.... So the priest gave him hallowed bread: for there was no bread there but the shewbread” (1 Sam. xxi, 1, 6).
“And he [Jesus] said unto them, Have ye never read what David did when he was ahungered, he, and they that were with him? How he went into the house of God in the days of Abiathar the high priest, and did eat the shewbread?” (Mark ii, 25, 26).
