2 Samuel 6:4

← John Gill's Exposition of the Entire Bible — II Samuel

2 Samuel 6:4

Ver. 4. And they brought it out of the house of Abinadab, which [was] at Gibeah,.... That is, the new cart, which is the last thing spoken of, 2Sa 6:3; and the bringing of the ark out of his house is mentioned before; though some take this to be the coffer in which were the presents of the Philistines, which was now brought out along with the ark, see 1Sa 6:8;

accompanying the ark of God; or "with the ark of God" {f}; that is, they brought the new cart "from" the house of Abinadab on the hill, with the ark of God upon it:

and Ahio went before the ark; guiding the oxen that drew it, and Uzzah might go behind, or on one side, to take care that the ark fell not out of it.
