After the first disastrous attempt at moving the Ark of the Covenant, David or the priests must have read the Law of Moses about how to move it. He had finally done his homework. This was what God wanted him to do in the first place. How easy it is for our emotions to prompt us to skip our due diligence. The Ark was to be carried on the shoulders of the Levites, the priestly tribe, not on a cart being pulled by animals. After being kept in a personal dwelling for three months, they are ready to try again, this time following the Law. Clearly, the king and the priests have different but important roles. A large part of David’s job was to restore order to the structure of worship within Israel, setting priorities and getting things back on track. This was the beginning of the golden age of Israel. Golden not because of physical wealth, but because of right worship.
