1 CHRONICLE CHAPTER 15
READ FULL CHAPTER HERE
COORDINATOR: AFOLABI JOSEPH OLAJIDE
Chapter 15 is about the Ark of the Covenant being brought to Jerusalem, in the City of David. David built places of residence for himself as well as an area where the Ark of God could stay.
David pitched a tent just for the Ark of the Covenant, and he commanded that no one can carry the ark but the Levites. These were the people who God had chosen to carry the Ark and minister before Him. David gathered all the Israelites at Jerusalem for
the Ark, after which he assembled the children of Aaron as
well as all of the Levites who were to carry it.
Zadok called many people, including Abiathar, who were the
priests. For the Levites, he called Asaiah, Uriel, Joel,
Shemaiah, Eliel, as well as Amminadab. They were the heads
of the houses among the Levites for the Lord. He told them
that they needed to sanctify themselves so that they are able
to bring the ark of God to the place which has been prepared
for it.
Since they did not do it the first time that it was ordered of
them, God broke out against the Israelites because it was not
done in proper order.
As soon as David said this, the priests and the Levites
cleaned and sanctified themselves so that they would be able
to bring the Ark of the Lord God of Israel to the place in
Jerusalem. The children of the Levites were the ones who
carried this ark on their shoulders using long poles, just as
Moses had commanded, which was the word according to the
Lord.
Then David appointed people who were to be singers to
accompany those carrying the Ark. Along with the singers,
there were musicians who played stringed instruments,
cymbals, and harps. They raised their voices and praised the
Lord. David, along with the elders and captains, brought the
Ark of the Covenant to the house of Obed-Edom.
