Gill's Notes on the Bible
And David made him houses in the city of David,.... With the help of the masons and carpenters Hiram sent him, 1 Chronicles 14:1, the royal palace is meant, with all the apartments in it, which were many and large, as so great a family he had required, and with all the out houses to it necessary for his servants, and their offices:
and prepared a place for the ark of God, and pitched for it a tent; see 2 Samuel 6:17.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
And pitched for it a tent - The old âtentâ or âtabernacleâ was still in existence at Gibeon 1 Chronicles 16:39; 2 Chronicles 1:3; but the ark had long been separated from it, and David probably thought that something newer and more magnificent was requisite. He therefore allowed the former tabernacle to keep its place, and had another made and erected.
