THE MESSAGE
Now they were ready. David, the elders of Israel, and the commanders of thousands started out to get the Chest of the Covenant of God and bring it up from the house of Obed-Edom. And they went rejoicing. Because God helped the Levites, strengthening them as they carried the Chest of the Covenant of God, they paused to worship by sacrificing seven bulls and seven rams. They were all dressed in elegant linen—David, the Levites carrying the Chest, the choir and band, and Kenaniah who was directing the music. David also wore a linen prayer shawl (called an ephod). On they came, all Israel on parade bringing up the Chest of the Covenant of God , shouting and cheering, playing every kind of brass and percussion and string instrument.

Contextual Overview
25 David, the elders of Israel, and the generals went to get the Box of the Lord 's Agreement. They brought it out from Obed Edom's house. Everyone was very happy! 26 God had helped the Levites who carried the Box of the Lord 's Agreement. So they sacrificed seven bulls and seven rams to him. 27 All the Levites who carried the Holy Box wore robes made from fine linen. Kenaniah, the man in charge of the singing, and all the singers had robes made from fine linen. David also wore a robe made from fine linen. He also wore an ephod made of fine linen. 28 So all the Israelites joined in bringing up the Box of the Lord 's Agreement. They shouted, they blew rams' horns and trumpets, and they played cymbals, lyres, and harps. 29 When the Box of the Lord 's Agreement arrived at the City of David, Saul's daughter Michal looked through a window. When she saw King David dancing and playing, she lost her respect for him.
