Sunday WTF?

Sunday WTF? May 4, 2015

(All day, yesterday, I had the feeling I’d forgotten something …)

2 Samuel 6:6-11

LostArkWhen they came to the threshing-floor of Nacon, Uzzah reached out his hand to the ark of God and took hold of it, for the oxen shook it. The anger of the Lord was kindled against Uzzah; and God struck him there because he reached out his hand to the ark; and he died there beside the ark of God. 

David was angry because the Lord had burst forth with an outburst upon Uzzah; so that place is called Perez-uzzah to this day.

David was afraid of the Lord that day; he said, “How can the ark of theLord come into my care?” So David was unwilling to take the ark of theLord into his care in the city of David; instead David took it to the house of Obed-edom the Gittite. 

The ark of the Lord remained in the house of Obed-edom the Gittite for three months; and the Lord blessed Obed-edom and all his household.
