An easy one for you :

Starting and ending with five hundred,
We find a five in its center.
First of all the letters
And first of all the numbers
In his name are also discovered.

Who is he?

He is

King David

Explanation

D is the Roman numeral for 500, so his name begins and ends in D.
V is the Roman numeral for 5, which is in the middle of his name.
The "first of all letters" is A and "the first of all numbers" is I (again in Roman numerals).

Putting it together you get DAVID.
