Contextual Overview
18 Then the angel of the Lord spoke to Gad. He said, "Tell David to build an altar to worship the Lord . David must build that altar near the threshing floor of Araunah the Jebusite." 19 Gad told David this, and David went to Araunah's threshing floor. 20 Araunah was threshing the wheat. He turned around and saw the angel. His four sons ran away to hide. 21 David walked up the hill to Araunah. Araunah saw him and left the threshing floor. He walked to David and bowed with his face to the ground in front of him. 22 David said to Araunah, "Sell me your threshing floor. I will pay you the full price. Then I can use the area to build an altar to worship the Lord . Then the terrible sicknesses will be stopped." 23 Araunah said to David, "Take this threshing floor. You are my lord and king, so do whatever you want. Look, I will also give you cattle for the burnt offering. You can have the wooden threshing tools to burn for the fire on the altar. And I will give the wheat for the grain offering. I will give all this to you." 24 But King David answered Araunah, "No, I will pay you the full price. I will not take anything that is yours and give it to the Lord . I will not give offerings that cost me nothing." 25 So David gave Araunah about 15 pounds of gold for the place. 26 David built an altar for worshiping the Lord there. David offered burnt offerings and fellowship offerings. He prayed to the Lord . The Lord answered David by sending fire down from heaven. The fire came down on the altar of burnt offering. 27 Then the Lord commanded the angel to put his sword back into its sheath.
