Contextual Overview
1David consulted with all his leaders, the commanders of hundreds and of thousands. 2Then he said to the whole assembly of Israel, “If it seems good to you, and if this is from the Lord our God, let us spread out and send the message to the rest of our relatives in all the districts of Israel, including the priests and Levites in their cities with pasturelands, that they should gather together with us. 3Then let us bring back the ark of our God, for we did not inquire of him in Saul’s days.” 4Since the proposal seemed right to all the people, the whole assembly agreed to do it. 5So David assembled all Israel, from the Shihor of Egypt to the entrance of Hamath, to bring the ark of God from Kiriath-jearim. 6David and all Israel went to Baalah (that is, Kiriath-jearim that belongs to Judah) to take from there the ark of God, which bears the name of the Lord who is enthroned between the cherubim. 7At Abinadab’s house they set the ark of God on a new cart. Uzzah and Ahio were guiding the cart.8David and all Israel were dancing with all their might before God with songs and with lyres, harps, tambourines, cymbals, and trumpets.
Bible Verse Review
from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge
carried the ark: Heb. made the ark to ride, at Numbers 3:10, and again at verse 38. A particular caution is given that strangers must not touch, or even pry into, the most holy things connected with the tabernacle, lest the offender die. In giving the law, also, even a beast which touched Sinai's mount was, by the Almighty's fiat, to be stoned or thrust through with a dart. And again we read - Numbers 4:15 after special orders to Aaron and his sons about covering the sanctuary and all the vessels previously to a removal, that the Kohathites, who were to carry them, "shall not touch any holy thing, lest they die." These were positive commands. May the sin of Uzza in touching the ark, warn Christians to take heed of rashness and irreverence in dealing about holy things. See note on 1 Chronicles 13:9.
in a new cart: 1 Chronicles 15:2, 1 Chronicles 15:13, Numbers 4:15, 1 Samuel 6:7, 2 Samuel 6:3
out of the house: 1 Samuel 7:1, 1 Samuel 7:2
Reciprocal: 1 Samuel 6:11 - they laid 2 Samuel 6:4 - General Isaiah 30:29 - with a pipe

Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 1 Chronicles 13:7. In a new cart — Lest it should be profaned by being placed on any carriage that had been employed about common uses.
Uzza and Ahio — All the versions understand אחיו achyo as signifying brother or brothers; so does Jarchi, who observes, from 2 Samuel 6:3, that these were the sons of Abinadab.
