Contextual Overview
9When they came to Chidon’s threshing floor, Uzzah reached out to hold the ark because the oxen had stumbled. 10Then the Lord’s anger burned against Uzzah, and he struck him dead because he had reached out to the ark. So he died there in the presence of God. 11David was angry because of the Lord’s outburst against Uzzah, so he named that place Outburst Against Uzzah, as it is still named today. 12David feared God that day and said, “How can I ever bring the ark of God to me?” 13So David did not bring the ark of God home to the city of David; instead, he diverted it to the house of Obed-edom of Gath. 14The ark of God remained with Obed-edom’s family in his house for three months, and the Lord blessed his family and all that he had.
