2 Samuel 6:2 Meaning and Commentary

2 Samuel 6:2

And David arose, and went with all the people that [were] with
him
The thirty thousand chosen men gathered together, and as many else as chose to go:

from Baale of Judah, to bring up from thence the ark of God;
that is, they first went to this place, as in ( 1 Chronicles 13:6 ) ; in order to fetch the ark from thence, as here expressed, and then they came from thence with it; this place is the same that is called Baalah and Kirjathbaal, a city in the tribe of Judah; hence Judah is added to it, and the same with Kirjathjearim, ( Joshua 15:9 Joshua 15:60 ) ; the place where it was brought to when fetched from Bethshemesh, ( 1 Samuel 7:1 ) ; and had been here now near fifty years; nor was it any where else during this time, only once at Gibeah of Saul with him, ( 1 Samuel 14:18 ) ;

whose name he called by the name of the Lord of hosts, that dwelleth
[between] the cherubim;
not the ark, but the Lord, whose is the ark; his name is called by the name of Jehovah, the infinite, incomprehensible, eternal, and immutable Being, the Lord of armies above and below; whose habitation was between the cherubim that overshadowed the mercy seat, which was above the ark; all this is said, not only to express the greatness and majesty of God, but for the honour of the ark, which belonged to him.

2 Samuel 6:2 In-Context

1 Tornou Davi a ajuntar todos os escolhidos de Israel, em número de trinta mil.

2 Depois levantou-se Davi, e partiu para Baal-Judá com todo o povo que tinha consigo, para trazerem dali para cima a arca de Deus, a qual é chamada pelo Nome, o nome do Senhor dos exércitos, que se assenta sobre os querubins.

3 Puseram a arca de Deus em um carro novo, e a levaram da casa de Abinadabe, que estava sobre o outeiro; e Uzá e Aiô, filhos de Abinadabe, guiavam o carro novo.

4 Foram, pois, levando-o da casa de Abinadabe, que estava sobre o outeiro, com a arca de Deus; e Aiô ia adiante da arca.

5 E Davi, e toda a casa de Israel, tocavam perante o Senhor, com toda sorte de instrumentos de pau de faia, como também com harpas, saltérios, tamboris, pandeiros e címbalos.
