2 Samuel 6:1 - Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary

Bible Comments

CONTENTS

This is an interesting Chapter, and considered as typically, in some points, referring to Jesus, demands our attention the more. We are here informed of David's intention of bringing up the ark from where it had long been in obscurity, during the troubles of Saul's reign, to David's new city. In the accomplishment of this purpose, David meets with an humbling, and most distressing providence. - His behaviour upon it, - the attempt afterwards renewed, and succeeds, - the joy of David and the people on the occasion, - the behaviour of Michal, David's wife, - his displeasure. These are the principal things contained in this Chapter.

2 Samuel 6:1

1 Again, David gathered together all the chosen men of Israel, thirty thousand.
