PersonGematria 14×1,075 named in TanakhFirst appearance:

Youngest son of Yishai, anointed by Shmuel and celebrated for killing Golyat. He served Shaul, fled his jealousy for years, and became Israel's second king, uniting the tribes, taking Jerusalem, and being promised an everlasting dynasty, though his reign was marked by his sin with Bat Sheva and rebellion within his own family (1-2 Samuel, 1 Kings 1-2). His name is also the ordinary Hebrew word for “beloved,” so the count includes both uses.
