This book is not actually about Elika of Harod, it is fictitiously written BY Elika. It is about King David and his family and his mighty men. David and all around him are but a foreshadow of the Messiah and His eternal and earthly kingdoms. Elika is merely the story teller here. Elika Of Harod was one of the Mighty Men of King David of Israel, David the warrior king. Elika is listed as one of the Mighty Men in II Samuel. In I Chronicles, which was compiled later, he is omitted. Did he fall from favor with the young king? This fictionalized account is fascinating. David Ben Jesse, King of Israel, had 37 mighty men and numerous relatives. This is a fictionalized account of the people and events of David's time based on scripture in the form of the diary of one of the mighty, Elika of Harod.
