Jerusalem

“The City of David” was King David’s Jerusalem.

The area that the Bible refers to as Mount Zion, on which the ancient City of David was built, looks quite insignificant in the metropolis of modern Jerusalem.
Excavations of the City of David, led by the late professor Yigal Shiloh between 1978 to 85, revealed a massive stepped-stone structure, or supportive wall, on the eastern side of the hill.
Jerusalem was the the capital city of the ancient nation of Israel from the year 1070 B.C.E. onward.
Following the division of the nation into two kingdoms (997 B.C.E.), Jerusalem continued as the capital of the southern kingdom of Judah. Throughout the Scriptures there are more than 800 references to Jerusalem.
Name. The earliest recorded name of the city is “Salem.” (Ge 14:18) Whereas some try to associate the meaning of the name Jerusalem with that of a West Semitic god named Shalem, the apostle Paul shows that “Peace” is the true meaning of the latter half of the name. (Heb 7:2) The Hebrew spelling of this latter half suggests a dual form, hence “Twofold Peace.” In Akkadian (Assyro-Babylonian) texts the city was called Urusalim (or Ur-sa-li-im-mu). On this basis some scholars give the meaning of the name as “City of Peace.” But the Hebrew form, which logically ought to govern, apparently means “Possession (Foundation) of Twofold Peace.”

Early History. The first historical mention of the city comes in the decade between 1943 and 1933 B.C.E., when Abraham’s encounter with Melchizedek took place. Melchizedek was “king of Salem” and “priest of the Most High God.” (Ge 14:17-20) However, the origins of the city and of the population that composed it are as wrapped in obscurity as is the origin of its king-priest Melchizedek. Compare Heb 7:1-3.

Many other expressions and titles were used in the Scriptures to refer to the city. The psalmist on one occasion uses the earlier name, “Salem.” (Ps 76:2) Other appellations were: “city of Jehovah” (Isa 60:14), “town of the grand King” (Ps 48:2; compare Mt 5:35), “City of Righteousness” and “Faithful Town” (Isa 1:26), “Zion” (Isa 33:20), and “holy city” (Ne 11:1; Isa 48:2; 52:1; Mt 4:5). The name “el Quds,” meaning “Holy City,” is still the popular name for it in Arabic. The name shown on present-day maps of Israel is Yerushalayim.

As Stableboy says here,interestingly, later in the New Testament, or In the Christian Greek Scriptures, the term “David’s city” is applied to Bethlehem, the birthplace of David and of Jesus. see Luke 2:4, 11; John 7:42
