A couple of quick easy questions about order of operations

Having not played competitively in 8 years I have some trouble remembering the order in which card abilities take place. Please forgive my ignorance.

1) Samuel:    
Negate play abilities. You may search deck for King Saul or David and put it in play to draw 2. May band to a male I Samuel Hero. Cannot be negated.

A) I attack with Samuel, I have King David in my hand...can I search my deck for him
(even though he is in my hand) and then place him into play to draw 2?

B) If I search for David with Samuel can I then add him to the battle with Samuel's band ability?

2) David the Shepherd:  You may search deck for throne of David or an O.T. red warrior class hero and put it in play...

A) If I have throne of David in play can I search my deck for it (Even though I already have it), and then place it into play from my hand?

3) Ishmaiah the Gibeonite: Draw X (limit 3). Negate special abilities on Evil Characters with toughness X or less. May band to a red O.T. Hero.

A) If I have Joab banded to Ishmaiah banded to Ashael do I draw 2 or 3 cards?

Again, sorry for the questions that are probably way too simple, but I just cannot remember some of this stuff, or the wording is confusing to me.

Thanks!

1A - You can search to shuffle your deck, but you cannot play him for a D2.

1B - Yes. 

2A - Did you mean to say that Throne was in your hand?  I think this is "No" for the same reason as 1A - if a search tells you what to do with the searched card, you can only do that action if you actually searched successfully for the card. 

3A - 2.  Ishmaiah draws before he bands.

If You gave Your life to love them so will I

3A - 2.  Ishmaiah draws before he bands.

If Joab enters battle first, and Ishmaiah bands to him due to Joab's band ability, then Ishmaiah would draw two cards.
