From his youth, when he was fighting off lions and bears as they attack his flock of sheep, to his triumph over the mighty Goliath, to his fearless warring against all the enemies of Israel once he was king.  It seems that David never backed away from a fight.  Yet when his own wife was being threatened by the evil King Saul of Israel, when given the chance to defend himself, his only action was to flee.
