David

…The David referred to by the Bab, and stated by Him to have preceded Moses, is not the same one as King David, the father of King Solomon, who lived in the tenth century B.C. and who obviously lived many years, and indeed many 77 centuries after Moses. Abdu’l-Baha has explained this in a Tablet.
