2 Samuel 6:8 Meaning and Commentary

2 Samuel 6:8

And David was displeased, because the Lord had made a breach
upon Uzzah
He could not easily submit, and be reconciled to the providence; his heart was ready to rise up against God, and murmur at him for striking him dead in such an awful manner, for so small a matter as this might seem to be; and the rather, as this put a stop to the procession, and cast a damp upon their joy and mirth on this occasion, and might seem to be an ill omen to David, and be improved by his enemies against him:

and he called the name of the place Perezuzzah unto this day;
the name he gave the place, which signifies "the breach of Uzzah", continued to the time of writing this book.

2 Samuel 6:8 In-Context

6 When they came to the threshing floor of Nakhon, Uzzah put forth [his hand] to the ark of God, and took hold of it; for the oxen stumbled.
7 The anger of the LORD was kindled against Uzzah; and God struck him there for his error; and there he died by the ark of God.
8 David was displeased, because the LORD had broken forth on Uzzah; and he called that place Peretz-Uzzah, to this day.
9 David was afraid of the LORD that day; and he said, How shall the ark of the LORD come to me?
10 So David would not remove the ark of the LORD to him into the city of David; but David carried it aside into the house of `Oved-'Edom the Gittite.
