Issued as part of Israel's ongoing biblical figures series, this piece continues a program the Bank of Israel has maintained for decades, pairing numismatic silver with narratives drawn from the Hebrew Bible. The David and Jonathan theme carries particular resonance in Israeli cultural discourse — their covenant, described in 1 Samuel, is one of the most analyzed relationships in biblical literature, debated by theologians and scholars across centuries and traditions.
