2 Samuel 6-7, 1 Chronicles 17, Psalm 98

from Commuter Bible OT · host John Ross

As we are reading chronologically, there will be a number of passages that cover the same event or span from different perspectives. Today, we’ll read the account of the return of the ark that was covered in 1 Chronicles, followed by the Lord’s covenant with David from both accounts. After King David reestablishes the tabernacle, he returns to his own home, a palace made of cedar, and thinks “Why does God dwell in a tent, while I, a mere man, dwell in a palace?” As his wheels begin to spin, he tells Nathan the prophet. Nathan tells David to go for it, but later receives a vision from the Lord: a Son of David will build a house for God that will last forever. 2 Samuel 6 - 1:06 . 2 Samuel 7 - 6:47 . 1 Chronicles 17 - 12:57 . Psalm 98 - 18:25 .  :::Christian Standard Bible translation.All music written and produced by John Burgess Ross.Co-produced by the Christian Standard Bible.facebook.com/commuterbibleinstagram.com/commuter_bibletwitter.com/CommuterPodpatreon.com/[email protected]
