thumb|David and Goliath (1888) by Osmar Schindler Goliath ( ) is a Philistine warrior of giant stature who plays a pivotal role in the origin myth of King David in the Book of Samuel. According to 1 Samuel, Goliath challenges the Israelites to best him in single combat. David, then a young shepherd, takes up the challenge and kills Goliath with a stone slung from a sling. The narrative signifies King Saul's unfitness to rule for not taking up the giant's challenge himself.
Goliath is a giant Philistine warrior from the biblical Book of Samuel who challenged the Israelites to single combat, only to be defeated and killed by the young shepherd David using a sling and stone. The story is significant because it establishes David's rise to power and demonstrates King Saul's unfitness to rule by showing his failure to accept Goliath's challenge himself.

ゴリアテ(ヘブライ語: גָּלְיָת、Golyat)は、旧約聖書の「サムエル記」に登場するペリシテ人の巨人兵士。英語発音でゴライアス(Goliath)とも呼ばれる。 身長は6キュビト半(約2.9メートル)、身にまとっていた銅の小札かたびら(鎧)は5000シェケル(約57キログラム)、槍の鉄の刃は600シェケル(約6.8キログラム)あったという。このため他より大型な生物の種小名や乗り物など、巨大さの象徴としてこの名が使われている。 サウル王治下のイスラエル王国の兵士と対峙し彼らの神であるヤハウェを嘲ったが、羊飼いの少年であったダビデが投石器から放った石を額に受けて昏倒し、自らの剣で首を刎ねられ絶命した。この故事にちなんで、立場的に弱小な者が強大な者を打ち負かす喩えとしてよく使われる。
