1 Chronicles 15.1-16.6

1 Chronicles 15.1-16.5 (see our study of 2 Samuel 6)

The first twenty-four verses of this chapter are not found in 2 Samuel 6. It may have been added to show what David did in the establishment of the religious center in Jerusalem. He realized he did it wrong (see 2 Samuel 6 and our previous study in 1 Chronicles 13). These verses highlight the extent David went to in order to do things correctly. He surrounds himself with Levites and, particularly, Kohathites (120 of them). This chapter ends with Michal despising David. Chapter 15, verse 25, through the next chapter, the first five verses, are contained in the single chapter of 2 Samuel 6. The phrase that is missing is how David responded to Michal as is found in 2 Samuel 6.

When God is worshiped in the manner God commands, we are most blest and He is most glorified.
