The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- The book is part of the Deuteronomistic history, a series of books that constitute a theological history of the Israelites and that aim to explain God's law for Israel under the guidance of the prophets.
- According to Jewish tradition, the book was written by Samuel, with additions by the prophets Gad and Nathan, who together are three prophets who had appeared within 1 Chronicles in its account of David's reign.
- Modern scholarly thinking posits that the entire Deuteronomistic history was composed c. 630–540 BCE by combining a number of independent texts of various ages.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Books of Samuel article was read about 120,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 80 and blocks with 67: each hit it takes is cut by 27 %.
