F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - 2 Samuel 6:1-11

the Return of the Ark Interrupted 2 Samuel 6:1-11 We have heard nothing of the Ark since it left the land of the Philistines, 1 Samuel 7:1-2 . The spiritual life of the nation was low, else this holy symbol of God’s presence would not have been thus neglected. David wished to make the new capital the religious as well as the political center of his kingdom. It was necessary, therefore, that the Ark be removed thither. The sacredness of the Ark lay in its association with Jehovah Sabaoth,... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - 2 Samuel 6:1-23

Victorious in war, David was not unmindful of the central truth of the national life over which he was called to preside. The nation was indeed a theocracy, with the worship of God at its very center. Believing this, David prepared to bring the Ark into the capital. When he did a startling event occurred. Contrary to instructions given long before to Moses, the Ark was placed on a new cart. As they started on their way, the oxen drawing the cart stumbled; and one man, daring to stretch forth... read more

The Ark in the Home of Obed-Edom 2 Samuel 6:1-18 (Compare 1 Chronicles 13:1-14 ) INTRODUCTORY WORDS We have some very solemn lessons to consider. 1. The sacredness of holy things. For several chapters we have studied some things which have had to do with the Ark of the Lord. One thing which we have not thus far suggested is the careless way in which the Ark was handled, first by the Philistines, and later by the men of Beth-shemesh. Neither of the above seemed to realize that there was any... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - 2 Samuel 6:4

‘ And they brought it out of the house of Abinadab, which was in the hill, with the ark of God, and Ahio went before the ark.’ Once the journey had commenced Ahio went before the Ark as a kind of herald and forerunner, in order to prepare people for the coming of that sacred object. It was necessary to give advanced warning for all had to beware lest in some way they come in contact with or desecrate the Ark, and he may well at the same time have spoken out aloud concerning the glory of God... read more

2 Samuel 6. David Brings the Ark to Jerusalem. Michal’ s Scorn. Her Punishment (J). ( Cf. p. 286.)— Nothing has been heard of the Ark since 1 Samuel 7:2, before the accession of Saul. The introduction of the Ark in I S 2 Samuel 14:18, is due to corruption of the text. This silence is sometimes accounted for by supposing that the Ark was under the control of the Philistines and inaccessible to the Israelites ( cf. Cent.B, and EBi, “ Ark” ). David’ s action gave added importance to the new... read more

CRITICAL AND EXPOSITORY NOTES—2 Samuel 6:1. “Chosen Men.” Keil understands this assembly to have been composed of representatives of the ntire nation, but the use of the word again seems to point to a military gathering. Thenius remarks that we learn from this “that David already in a certain sense maintained a standing army.”2 Samuel 6:2. “All the people,” etc. “These are not the above-named thirty thousand warriors, but besides them, the representatives of the whole nation gathered to the... read more

Chapter 6And again, David gathered together the chosen men of Israel, thirty thousand of them. And David arose, and went and all the people that were with him from Baale of Judah, to bring from there the ark of God ( 2 Samuel 6:1-2 ),Now Baale of Judah is actually Kirjath-Jearim, it's about eight miles from Jerusalem. It is where they had brought the ark of God. So he was coming now to bring the ark of God into Jerusalem. In coming to Kirjath-Jearim, what they did is make a new cart, and they... read more

2 Samuel 6:2 . Baale of Judah. It is called Baalah, Joshua 15:9. It was no doubt the place formerly called Kirjath-jearim. 2 Samuel 6:8 . David was displeased. ויחר vayickar, perturbatus fuit, as Junius reads. David was troubled with anguish and sorrow of heart for the death of Uzzah. The whole 30,000 were so terrified that they left the awful ark in the field. The priests, the unskilful priests, were to blame for putting the ark on a cart. The war of the ark with Eli’s sons, with... read more
