Listen to 2 Samuel 6:8

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 Or quand ils furent venus jusqu'à l'aire de Nacon, Uzza porta la main sur l'arche de Dieu et la saisit, parce que les bœufs regimbaient.
7 Et la colère de l'Éternel s'embrasa contre Uzza, et Dieu le frappa à cause de sa témérité, et il mourut là, près de l'arche de Dieu.
8 Et David fut affligé de ce que l'Éternel avait fait une brèche en la personne d'Uzza, et jusqu'à ce jour on a appelé ce lieu-là Pérets-Uzza (brèche d'Uzza).
9 David eut donc peur de l'Éternel en ce jour-là, et il dit: Comment l'arche de l'Éternel entrerait-elle chez moi?
10 Et David ne voulut point retirer l'arche de l'Éternel chez lui, dans la cité de David; mais il la fit conduire dans la maison d'Obed-Édom, de Gath.
