Kingdom of David: The Saga of the Israelites tells an epic story: how a small group of tribes known as the Israelites gave birth to a nation, the world’s first monotheistic religion and a set of ethics that still governs human society three millennia later. Through the stories of the patriarch Abraham, the liberator Moses, King David, and others, the four-part series brings to life the dramatic tale of loss and triumph that has shaped humanity's basic moral struggle from biblical times until now.

Filmed in Israel, including major shoots in Masada, ancient villages near Nazareth, the Sea of Galilee, and in Tunisia and Morocco, Kingdom of David couples extensive re-creations with the contributions of noted historians, theologians, and archeologists. Narrated by Keith David, Kingdom of David also includes the voices of actors Jeremy Irons, Derek Jacobi, Rene Auberjonois and F. Murray Abraham.
