# 166 - David and Jonathan's Bond - In this episode of The Chosen People with Yael Eckstein, we explore 1 Samuel 18:1–8 and the powerful covenant between David and Jonathan—a friendship rooted in loyalty, sacrifice, and deep spiritual love. As Jonathan lays down his royal rights to honor the one God has chosen, we’re reminded that true covenant love asks not what it can gain, but what it can give.

Episode 166 of The Chosen People with Yael Eckstein is inspired by the Book of Joshua.
