Summary Of Commentaries Associated With The Selected Verse
| Notes on the Bible, by Albert Barnes, [1834] |
| The "due order" was that the ark should be borne on the shoulders of Kohathite Levites - not that it should be placed upon a cart, drawn by oxen, and rudely shaken. |
| Commentary on the Old Testament, by Carl Friedrich Keil and Franz Delitzsch [1857-78] |
| "For because in the beginning (i.e., when the ark was removed from the house of Amminadab, Ch1 13:1-14) it was not you (sc., who brought it up), did Jahve our God made a breach upon us," sc. by the slaying of Uzza, Ch1 13:11. In the first clause the predicate is wanting, but it may easily be supplied from the context. The contracted form למבּרשׁונה, made up of למה and בּראשׁונה, is unique, since מה is so united only with small words, as in מזּה, Exo 4:2, מלּכם, Isa 3:15; but we find מתּלאה for מה־תּלאה, Mal 1:13; cf. Ew. 91, d. למה here signifies: on account of this which = because; cf.'Ew. 222, a, and 353, a. "This was done, because we did not seek Him according to the right," which required that the ark, upon which Jehovah sits enthroned, should be carried by Levites, and touched by no unholy person, or one who is not a priest (Num 4:15). |
15 And when Aaron [0175] and his sons [01121] have made an end [03615] of covering [03680] the sanctuary [06944], and all the vessels [03627] of the sanctuary [06944], as the camp [04264] is to set forward [05265]; after [0310] that, the sons [01121] of Kohath [06955] shall come [0935] to bear [05375] it: but they shall not touch [05060] any holy thing [06944], lest they die [04191]. These things are the burden [04853] of the sons [01121] of Kohath [06955] in the tabernacle [0168] of the congregation [04150].
13 Ye said [0559] also, Behold, what a weariness [04972] is it! and ye have snuffed [05301] at it, saith [0559] the LORD [03068] of hosts [06635]; and ye brought [0935] that which was torn [01497], and the lame [06455], and the sick [02470]; thus ye brought [0935] an offering [04503]: should I accept [07521] this of your hand [03027]? saith [0559] the LORD [03068].
15 What mean ye that ye beat [01792] my people [05971] to pieces [01792], and grind [02912] the faces [06440] of the poor [06041]? saith [05002] the Lord [0136] GOD [03069] of hosts [06635].
2 And the LORD [03068] said [0559] unto him, What is that in thine hand [03027]? And he said [0559], A rod [04294].
11 And David [01732] was displeased [02734], because the LORD [03068] had made [06555] a breach [06556] upon Uzza [05798]: wherefore that place [04725] is called [07121] Perezuzza [06560] to this day [03117].
1 And David [01732] consulted [03289] with the captains [08269] of thousands [0505] and hundreds [03967], and with every leader [05057].
2 And David [01732] said [0559] unto all the congregation [06951] of Israel [03478], If it seem good [02895] unto you, and that it be of the LORD [03068] our God [0430], let us send [07971] abroad [06555] unto our brethren [0251] every where, that are left [07604] in all the land [0776] of Israel [03478], and with them also to the priests [03548] and Levites [03881] which are in their cities [05892] and suburbs [04054], that they may gather [06908] themselves unto us:
3 And let us bring again [05437] the ark [0727] of our God [0430] to us: for we enquired [01875] not at it in the days [03117] of Saul [07586].
4 And all the congregation [06951] said [0559] that they would do so [06213]: for the thing [01697] was right [03474] in the eyes [05869] of all the people [05971].
5 So David [01732] gathered [06950] all Israel [03478] together [06950], from Shihor [07883] of Egypt [04714] even unto the entering [0935] of Hemath [02574], to bring [0935] the ark [0727] of God [0430] from Kirjathjearim [07157].
6 And David [01732] went up [05927], and all Israel [03478], to Baalah [01173], that is, to Kirjathjearim [07157], which belonged to Judah [03063], to bring up [05927] thence the ark [0727] of God [0430] the LORD [03068], that dwelleth [03427] between the cherubims [03742], whose name [08034] is called [07121] on it.
7 And they carried [07392] the ark [0727] of God [0430] in a new [02319] cart [05699] out of the house [01004] of Abinadab [041]: and Uzza [05798] and Ahio [0283] drave [05090] the cart [05699].
8 And David [01732] and all Israel [03478] played [07832] before [06440] God [0430] with all their might [05797], and with singing [07892], and with harps [03658], and with psalteries [05035], and with timbrels [08596], and with cymbals [04700], and with trumpets [02689].
9 And when they came [0935] unto the threshingfloor [01637] of Chidon [03592], Uzza [05798] put forth [07971] his hand [03027] to hold [0270] the ark [0727]; for the oxen [01241] stumbled [08058].
10 And the anger [0639] of the LORD [03068] was kindled [02734] against Uzza [05798], and he smote [05221] him, because he put [07971] his hand [03027] to the ark [0727]: and there he died [04191] before [06440] God [0430].
11 And David [01732] was displeased [02734], because the LORD [03068] had made [06555] a breach [06556] upon Uzza [05798]: wherefore that place [04725] is called [07121] Perezuzza [06560] to this day [03117].
12 And David [01732] was afraid [03372] of God [0430] that day [03117], saying [0559], How [01963] shall I bring [0935] the ark [0727] of God [0430] home to me?
13 So David [01732] brought [05493] not the ark [0727] home to himself to the city [05892] of David [01732], but carried it aside [05186] into the house [01004] of Obededom [05654] the Gittite [01663].
14 And the ark [0727] of God [0430] remained [03427] with the family [01004] of Obededom [05654] in his house [01004] three [07969] months [02320]. And the LORD [03068] blessed [01288] the house [01004] of Obededom [05654], and all that he had.
