Death Tolls for the Man-made Megadeaths of the Twentieth Century

Alphabetical Index (A-J)

... when David returned from the slaughter of the Philistine, the women came out of all the cities of Israel, singing and dancing, to meet King Saul, with timbrels, with songs of joy, and with instruments of music. And the women sang to one another as they made merry.

"Saul has slain his thousands

And David his ten thousands"

And Saul was very angry, and this saying displeased him; he said "They have ascribed to David ten thousands, and to me they have ascribed but thousands..." And Saul eyed David from that day on.
