David, son of Jesse, reigned as king over Israel in righteousness, integrity, and graciousness. He is a prophet of the family from Bethlehem Judah and father of Solomon. In the Cave of Treasures the blessed David is quoted from the Psalms on topics such as Eden as the Holy Church and the fate of the sons of Seth.

In the Kebra Nagast David is associated with Mount Zion and the promise of seed who will reign as king on earth and in the heavens. Menyelek is crowned as David II. The Ascension of Isaiah refers to the Psalms in the parables of David and notes that Mary and Joseph were of the seed and family of the righteous David.
