This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
2Sa_6:11 And the ark of the LORD continued in the house of Obededom the Gittite three months: and the LORD blessed Obededom, and all his household.
Ver. 11. And the ark of the Lord continued.] If that heathen could say of his poor cottage, Eíèá êáé ïé èåïé , here are gods, household gods, whatever else is wanting; how much more might this good Levite now say so!
And the Lord blessed Obededom.] As he will do all those, both small and great, that favour his cause and further his kingdom: for he is a liberal paymaster, and his retributions are more than bountiful. If Abinadab was not so well blessed as Obededom, it was haply because he entertained not the ark with like reverence. As men measure to God in preparation, &c., so will God measure to them in blessing.
