Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - 1 Chronicles 15:1-24

1-24 Wise and good men may be guilty of oversights, which they will correct, as soon as they are aware of them. David does not try to justify what had been done amiss, nor to lay the blame on others; but he owns himself guilty, with others, of not seeking God in due order read more

List of the Chief Men Partaking v. 1. And David made him houses in the City of David, the various buildings belonging to the royal palace, and prepared a place for the ark of God, set aside a suitable, smooth surface, and pitched for it a tent, evidently after the model of the Tabernacle, which was still at Gibeon and continued to be used as a sanctuary, the altar of burnt offering remaining there till the time of Solomon, 1 Chronicles 16:39-Matthew :; 1 Chronicles 21:29. v. 2.

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - 1 Chronicles 15:1-29

From this account of bringing the Ark from the house of Obed-edom into the city, it is evident that David had learned the lesson which the death of Uzzah was intended to teach. He declared that the work of carrying the Ark must be the Levites' only. After careful preparation of the Tent for its reception, which would almost certainly be according to the ancient pattern given to Moses, the ceremony of bearing it into its resting place was carried out. The king's love of music is evident in... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - 1 Chronicles 15:1-29

1 Chronicles 15:1 to 1 Chronicles 16:43 . The Bringing up of the Ark to Jerusalem ( cf. 2 Samuel 6:12-Proverbs : a).— The account given by the Chronicler is much more elaborate, stress being laid on the part played by the priests and Levites; they are not mentioned in 2 S. 1 Chronicles 15:2. Cf. Numbers 1:50; Numbers 4:15; Numbers 7:9; Numbers 10:17. On the previous occasion of the removal of the Ark, the Law had not been observed ( 1 Chronicles 13:7; cf. 1 Chronicles 15:13). 1 Chronicles... read more

CRITICAL NOTES.] The bulk of this chapter consists of new matter, which the writer of Chronicles found in his authorities, and regarding as important for his purpose, introduced at this point into the narrative.

Joseph Sutcliffe

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - 1 Chronicles 15:1-29

1 Chronicles 15:2 . None ought to carry the ark of God but the levites; and they were enjoined to carry it by staves, and on their shoulders. This plainly suggests the reason of God’s awful displeasure against Uzza, who unmindful of the duties of his office, indulged in the profane indolence of the Philistines, in carrying the sacred ark on a cart, and died for his presumption. 1 Chronicles 15:17 . Heman, Asaph, and Jeduthun were appointed the chief singers. Asaph composed twelve... read more
