Road to Tabernacle and David’s relationship with Mirab in House of David Season 2

In the third episode, David is adamant about not getting married to Mirab. He is open about his feelings towards Mychal, and tries his best to make the kind accept their relationship. In the fourth episode, we see a subtle change in the dynamic between Mirab and David. On their way to the Tabernacle, David faces a challenging situation.

As he is the leader, he now has to make sure the army follows him. However, when a poor man arrives asking for their help because their village was under attack. David decides to stop the attackers and face the challenge head-on. However, he miscalculated the whole situation. It eventually led to the death of many of their soldiers. David begins to blame himself for making the wrong choice and has a complete emotional breakdown. Mirab arrives and begins to console him. While crying, David puts his head on Mirab’s shoulder. This whole incident is seen by Mychal.

After they arrive at the Tabernacle, King Saul introduces David and Mirab together to the villagers. During this moment, David holds Mirab’s hands. Their relationship seems to have taken a positive turn. Initially, it seemed that Adriel had revealed to the King that David was the anointed one. However, while the episode progresses, it can be understood that it is not the case. At the beginning of the episode, the King orders Joab to kill the family of the anointed one.

Joab takes Eliab to fulfill the mission, and they set out for Bethlehem. Eliab keeps asking Joab about the mission; however, he does not reveal until the very end, when they have to execute the mission. Eliab is completely taken aback to hear Joab’s orders about killing the innocent villagers. After completing the mission, Joab and Eliab return to the Tabernacle to join the others.

Eliab is in a state of agony. He feels an intense sense of guilt. It pushes him to the verge of killing himself. King Saul is happy to find that Joab has executed the family of the anointed one who was killed. However, little does he know that Adriel completely misled him, and David is the real anointed one. King Saul tries to force Prophet Samuel to be by his side, by saying that he had killed the one Samuel had chosen to be the King.

Prophet Samuel, on seeing that David is still alive, refuses to do so. The episode ends with the soldiers voluntarily following David’s lead. In the beginning, they made fun of David’s leadership, but now, seeing how David is affected by the death of the soldiers, they understand his emotions. This episode of House of David Season 2 ends with a hopeful note.
