5:2 The “all Israel” theme is present here. When the ark was brought to Jerusalem, “all Israel” was present. Regardless of the competing places of worship established by the northern kingdom or those established during the exile, the proper place for the unity of Israel’s worship to manifest itself was Jerusalem.

5:14 The “cloud” was a frequent sign of God’s presence in a particular place (Ex 13; Nm 9; Ezk 10:3-4). It also signified God’s acceptance of the temple as an appropriate place to meet his people.
