[Baale. that dwelleth.]
name <08034> [whose name.]
transported ... ark <0727 07392> [carried the ark. Heb. made the ark to ride.]
At Nu 3:10, and again at ver. 38, a particular caution is given that strangers must not touch, or even pry into, the most holy things connected with the tabernacle, lest the offender die. In giving the law, also, even a beast which touched Sinai's mount was, by the Almighty's fiat, to be stoned or thrust through with a dart. And again we read, (Nu 4:15) after special orders to Aaron and his sons about covering the sanctuary and all the vessels previously to a removal, that the Kohathites, who were to carry them, "shall not touch any holy thing, lest they die." These were positive commands. May the sin of Uzza in touching the ark, warn Christians to take heed of rashness and irreverence in dealing about holy things: see ver. 9.
new cart ............. cart <02319 05699> [in a new cart.]
house <01004> [out of the house.]
David <01732> [David.]
singing <07892> [singing. Heb. songs. with harps.]
The word {kinnor,} in Chaldee, {kinnora,} in Syraic, {kainoro,} in Arabic, {kinnarat,} and in Greek [ ,] certainly denotes a harp, played on with the hand, according to 1 Sa 16:23. The number of strings in the harp was at first three; but afterwards they were increased to four, and at last to seven.
stringed instruments <05035> [psalteries.]
{Naivel,} or {naibel,} in Greek [ ,] and in Latin, {nablium,} was an instrument of the harp kind; having twelve sounds.

[Shammuah. Nathan.]
Solomon <08010> [Solomon.]
Elishua <0474> [Elishua.]
[Elishama.]
Beeliada <01182> [Beeliada.]
Probably Beeliada is a mistake for Eliada, as the LXX., Syriac, and Arabic read here.
[Eliada. and Eliphalet.]
[Eliphelet.]
This variation merely arises from the change of a vowel. Here we have 13 persons mentioned, but only 11 in Samuel; and it is probable that the duplicate Elishama and Eliphelet dying when young, were therefore omitted in the latter.

again <03254> [yet again.]
asked <07592> [enquired.]
circle <05437> [turn away.]
hear <08085> [when thou shalt hear.]
Some, taking the word {becha‹m,} translated "mulberry trees," as a proper name, render, "when thou shalt hear a sound of going upon the summits of Becha‹m;" other understanding {rosh,} "a top," in the sense of beginning or entrance, read, "when thou hearest a sound of footsteps at the entrance of the grove of mulberry trees;" and others think a rustling among the leaves is intended. The Targumist read, "When thou shalt hear the sound of the angels coming to thy assistance, then go out to battle; for an angel is sent from the presence of God, that he may render thy way prosperous." If there had not been an evident supernatural interference, David might have thought that the {ruse de guerre} which he had used, was the cause of his victory.
