Their characterization of him as \u201cking of the land\u201d is no doubt a tribute to his preeminence on the battlefield but also is an inadvertent confirmation of his clandestine election, of his displacing Saul. Appropriately, through as J.P. Fokkelman notes, they use a somewhat vague designation instead of the more official \u201cking of Israel.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">From: Robert Alter, <\/span><em><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Hebrew Bible<\/span><\/em><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">vol. 2: Prophets, W.
