A:The biblical answer would be David, who created a great empire, or perhaps Solomon. However, historians now believe that the was no United Monarchy as described in The Bible, and that Saul, David and Solomon were more likely just local chieftains whose statures grew with the telling of legends surrounding them. The greatest king of Israel would have been either Omri or his son Ahab, although later biblical tradition seeks to tarnish their reputations.

Answer:

Solomon was the greatest King of Israel! 2 Samuel 2 explains the change from King David to King Solomon. Solomon became King over Israel in the year 971 B.C. Although Solomon was young, he soon became known for his wisdom -- and he was loved by the people of Israel. Solomon got his wisdom from God; God told him he could ask for one thing and Solomon asked for a discerning heart to guide and judge between right and wrong for the people. The LORD was pleased with Solomon so he gave him a wise and discerning heart, He also gave him both riches and honor -- there was no equal King during the time of Solomon. There had never been anyone like King Solomon, and never will be. Solomon built The Holy Temple for the LORD; it took him seven years to complete. Solomon is portrayed as a man full of great in wisdom, wealth, and power, but ultimately as a king whose sin, including idolatry and turning away from God, lead to the kingdom of Israel being torn in two during the reign of his son Rehoboam-- causing the Divided Kingdom. King Solomon, son of King David, was known for his wisdom, obedience, leadership abilities, his power, his wealth, and his writings.

Answer:

King David is said to be the greatest of Israel's Kings as Jesus is to inherit the 'Throne of David' and the 'Key of David' is vital to prophecy.

Answer:

According to the Bible, David was the greatest king of Israel.

According to many archaeologists and scholars, many of the achievements traditionally attributed to David should rightfully be credited to King Omri of Israel. It is likely that Omri was really the greatest king of Israel.
