    The fact of the matter: It is because God holy word the bible is a spiritual book not a newspaper, that is the problem with the society they think if it is not in the bible it is wrong, or if God did not talk about it it must not be important. No, The things are important, but you have to know the difference between God world and our world, there is a big difference, God kingdom is sinless and our world is full of sin because of Adam and Eve, and all of mankind, not doing God holy word the bible only. Read Colossians 2:13, read Ephesians 2:1-10, read Psalm 51:17, read Romans 6:23

    because every single person related to everyone mentioned in the biblical times are mostly irrelavant to what we need in the faith... no one cares about King Davids father, mother, aunt, uncle, niece, nephew, brother, sister, neighbor, babysitter, dog, cat, and the pigeon that had a nest in his window....

    Many verses were left out due to budgeting. 

    The last time that the Bible was slated to be 

    edited and modified so that it could support 

    its own narrative in this modern-day world, 

    the water cooler and the copier went on the fritz. 

    Damn the timing. 

  • Why , in your opinion, did he have to be mentioned several times?

    Everything took place in that time, and at that time!

    I was wondering who start to record the stories of the Prophets in the Bible and where are the original Scriptures being recorded in Aramaic and Hebrew, the languages spoken by all the Israelite  Prophets, before asking for anything for anything else.

    There's really no reason to.  Not being sarcastic or anything.  There really was no reason to mention him overmuch.

    Because he was not a king.

    King Saul's father is mentioned even less.
