This Chapter Verse Commentaries:





The sons of Kohath shall bear it, to wit upon their shoulders, not upon carts or waggons, as appears from Num_7:9, the neglect of which order did provoke the Lord, 2Sa_6:6,7 1Ch_13:7 15:12, &c. Afterward the priests themselves, being multiplied, carried these things, as appears from Deu_31:9 Jos_3:6 8:33 1Sa_4:4, though the Levites also were not excluded, 2Ch_5:5. They shall not to any holy thing; immediately, or before they be covered. Lest they die, as some did for that sin. See 1Sa_6:19 2Sa_6:6,7.
