House of David reaches #2 on Prime Video

Originally published in Thrive News

Prime Video’s House of David continues to captivate audiences, surging to the #2 spot on the platform last week. The epic biblical drama, which premiered on February 27, has drawn massive viewership, bringing the story of Israel’s greatest king to a global audience.

Now, fans eagerly await the release of Episode 4, The Song of Moses, which drops this Thursday, March 6. The series, produced by Jon Erwin (Jesus Revolution, American Underdog) and Jon Gunn (Ordinary Angels), has built anticipation with its gripping storytelling, high production value, and faith-driven narrative.

From the very first episode, House of David has foreshadowed the iconic showdown between David and Goliath, but the climactic battle has yet to unfold and won’t until Episodes 7 and 8 as a part 1 and part 2 showdown. Instead, the series has meticulously built David’s journey — from an overlooked shepherd to a divinely-anointed future king. Michael Iskander’s portrayal of David has been praised for its depth, showing the young hero’s transformation as he steps into his destiny.

Meanwhile, King Saul’s unraveling continues to intensify, as his paranoia and defiance of God set the stage for a dramatic power shift. The political and spiritual turmoil within the kingdom of Israel only deepens the stakes as David’s rise comes closer to a defining moment.

The success of House of David underscores the growing demand for faith-based, high-quality entertainment. With a global reach spanning over 250 million potential viewers, the show has already made history as one of the most ambitious biblical dramas ever released.

Greg Laurie, an advisor to Wonder Project, emphasised the significance of the series’ reach: “This is a historic moment for sharing the Bible with the world.” Jon Erwin, the show’s co-creator, echoed that sentiment, calling this “the first global release of my career” and describing it as “an unbelievable moment– this is the year of the Bible.”
