First Book of Chronicles, chapter 13 1 Chronicles 13 1 Chronicles 12 chapter 12 1 Chronicles 14 chapter 14 Books of Chronicles Old Testament 13 Ketuvim Leningrad-codex-14-chronicles.pdf 250px The complete Hebrew text of the Books of Chronicles (1 and 2 Chronicles) in the Leningrad Codex (1008 CE). 1 Chronicles 13 is the thirteenth chapter of the Books of Chronicles in the Hebrew Bible or the First Book of Chronicles in the Old Testament of the Christian Bible.Ackroyd 1993 113Mathys 2007 268 The book is compiled from older sources by an unknown person or group, designated by modern scholars as "the Chronicler", and had the final shape established in late fifth or fourth century BCE.Ackroyd 1993 113–114 This chapter contains the account of an unsuccessful attempt to bring the Ark of the Covenant to Jerusalem by David.Mathys 2007 274 The whole chapter belongs to the section focusing on the kingship of David (1 Chronicles 9:35 to 29:30).Ackroyd 1993 113 Text This chapter was originally written in the Hebrew language. It is divided into 14 verses. Textual witnesses Some early manuscripts containing the text of this chapter in Hebrew are of the Masoretic Text tradition, which includes the Aleppo Codex (10th century), and Codex Leningradensis (1008).Würthwein 1995 35-37 There is also a translation into Koine Greek known as the Septuagint, made in the last few centuries BCE. Extant ancient manuscripts of the Septuagint version include Codex Vaticanus (B; B; 4th century), Codex Sinaiticus (S; BHK: S; 4th century), Codex Alexandrinus (A; A; 5th century) and Codex Marchalianus (Q; Q; 6th century).Würthwein 1995 73–74 Old Testament references 1 Chronicles 13:1–7 9: 2 Samuel 6:1–4 9.1 Chronicles 13 Berean Study Bible. Biblehub 1 Chronicles 13:8–14 9: 2 Samuel 6:5–11 9. The ark brought from Kiriath-Jearim (13:1–4) Verses 1–4 detail the preparations by David involving all Israel in the first attempt to bring the ark into Jerusalem, more than the parallel account in 2 Samuel 6:1–2.Mathys 2007 274 The ark is a national symbol of Israel's religion and important for David as he had been firmly and unanimously established as the king of all Israel.Coogan 2007 598 Hebrew Bible Consistent with the earlier chapters, David consulted his military leaders and then the whole congregation (verse 2) to achieve two conditions for the execution of the effort: the willingness of the participants and God's acceptance of the plan. It was later revealed that the plan lacked God's acceptance, as it was done without the significant collaboration of the priests and Levites.Mathys 2007 275 Verse 2 And David said to all the assembly of Israel, "If it seems good to you, and if it is of the Lord our God, let us send out to our brethren everywhere who are left in all the land of Israel, and with them to the priests and Levites who are in their cities and their common-lands, that they may gather together to us;"1 Chronicles 13:2 NKJV NKJV "Sent out... everywhere": from he נפרצה נשלחה, nip̄-rə-tzāh H 6555 nish-lə-khāh H 7971,1 Chronicles 13:2 Hebrew text analysis. Biblehub with the first component ("to send out" or "to break out", perez) is repeated later in this chapter (three times in verse 11 including "Perez-uzza") and also plays an important role elsewhere in 1 Chronicles (14:11; 15:13).Mathys 2007 275 The priests and Levites lived within the territories of Israel's tribes (1 Chronicles 6:54–81).Coogan 2007 598 Hebrew Bible Uzza and the ark (13:5–14) right|thumb|200px|The death of Uzzah. In "The story of the Bible from Genesis to Revelation" (1873) Verses 5–14 follows closely to the report in 2 Samuel 6:3–11 (without verse 12).Coogan 2007 598 Hebrew BibleMathys 2007 274–275 The boundaries of Israel were expanded in Chronicles from the usual phrase "from Beersheba to Dan" to be between "the Shihor river in Egypt and Lebo-hamath"; the area achieved after David's spectacular victories (2 Chronicles 7:8; cf. Joshua 13:3, 5 although the extended regions were not conquered in the time of Joshua).Mathys 2007 275 Verse 5 So David gathered all Israel together, from Shihor in Egypt to as far as the entrance of Hamath, to bring the ark of God from Kirjath Jearim.1 Chronicles 13:5 NKJV NKJV "Shihor in Egypt" (Hebrew: he שיחור מצרים, shî-khōr H 7883 mish-ra-yim H 47141 Chronicles 13:5 Hebrew text analysis. Biblehub), the southern border, is not the Nile, but is the brook of Egypt, eastward from the Nile, also called the "Rhinocorura", now "el Arish". "Shihor" is written as he שׁחר in Isaiah 23:3 and he שחור in Jeremiah 2:18.Keil, Carl Friedrich; Delitzsch, Franz. Commentary on the Old Testament (1857-1878). 1 Chronicles 13. Accessed 24 Juni 2018. "The entrance of Hamath" (Hebrew: he לבוא חמת, lə-ḇōw H 935 khă-māṯ H 2574): the northern boundary of the land of Israel as mentioned multiple times in the Hebrew Bible (Numbers 13:21; Joshua 13:5; Judges 3:3; 1 Kings 8:65; 2 Kings 14:25; 1 Chronicles 13:5; 2 Chronicles 7:8; Amos 6:14; Ezekiel 47:15, Ezekiel 47:20; Ezekiel 48:1).Keil, Carl Friedrich; Delitzsch, Franz. Commentary on the Old Testament (1857-1878). Numbers 24. Accessed 23 Juni 2018. "Hamath" is now "Hama" or "Hamah" in west-central Syria (35 08 N 36 45 E region:SY inline,title), known as "Epiphania" by the Greeks and Romans or "Amathe" by Josephus,Robinson 1908, p. 7; Quote: "Emath or Amath is found in I Macc 12:25, and also in the writings of early Christian authors." located on the Orontes river (cf. Numbers 13:21; Genesis 10:18). However, the term "entrance of Hamath" ("the approach to Hamath" or "the entering in of the district of Hamath"Robinson 1908 14) does not refer to the city, but to the kingdom of Hamath, which was named after its capital (2 Chronicles 8:4: Solomon built store cities "in Hamath"), as the city of Hamath never belonged to the kingdom of Israel, nor known to be a border city of Israel, so the term refers only to the southern border of the kingdom of Hamath. Verse 6 And David and all Israel went up to Baalah, to Kirjath Jearim, which belonged to Judah, to bring up from there the ark of God the Lord, who dwells between the cherubim, where His name is proclaimed.1 Chronicles 13:6 NKJV NKJV "Baalah": or "Baale Judah" in 2 Samuel 6:2.Note on 1 Chronicles 13:6 in NKJV The identification as Kiriath-jearim stems from Joshua 15:9.Mathys 2007 275 Verse 9 And when they came unto the threshingfloor of Chidon, Uzza put forth his hand to hold the ark; for the oxen stumbled.1 Chronicles 13:9 KJV KJV "Chidon" (Hebrew: he כידן, kî-ḏōn H 3592): written as "Nachon" he נָכ֑וֹן in 2 Samuel 6:6.Note [a] on 1 Chronicles 13:9 in NKJV "Stumbled": or "let it go off"Note [b] on 1 Chronicles 13:9 in NKJV Verse 11 And David was displeased, because the Lord had made a breach upon Uzza: wherefore that place is called Perezuzza to this day.1 Chronicles 13:11 KJV KJV "Perez-uzza": from Hebrew he פרץ עזא meaning "the bursting out against Uzza",Tuell 2012 58 written as "Perez uzzah" (he פרץ עזה) in 2 Samuel 6:8. The same verb "perez" is used three times in this verse and also in 1 Chronicles 14:11 and 15:13 (cf. Exodus 19:22).Ellicott, C. J. (Ed.) (1905).

Verse 13 So David would not move the ark with him into the City of David, but took it aside into the house of Obed-Edom the Gittite.1 Chr 13:13 NKJV NKJV "Obed-Edom the Gittite" indicates that he is a Philistine.Mathys 2007 275 The word 'Gittite' is omitted in 1 Chronicles 15:25.Mathys 2007 275 "The City of David": refers to a section in southern Jerusalem fortified by David and named after him (1 Chronicles 11:7), also may refer to "Mount Zion"..Coogan 2007 598 Hebrew Bible Verse 14 And the ark of God remained with the household of Obed-edom in his house three months. And the Lord blessed the household of Obed-edom and all that he had.1 Chronicles 13:14 MEV MEV "Three months": the period of the ark's stay with Obed-edom is filled in with the account of David's victories over the Philistines (chapter 14) replacing the information in 2 Samuel 6:12 that David is overjoyed to hear the blessing of the ark's presence in Obed-edom's home that he arranged for the subsequent transportation to the city of David.Mathys 2007 275 See also 22em Ark of the Covenant Jerusalem Kiriath-Jearim Obed-edom Tabernacle Related Bible parts: Numbers 34, 2 Samuel 6, 1 Chronicles 11, 1 Chronicles 14, 1 Chronicles 15 References Sources Ackroyd Peter R Chronicles, Books of Metzger Bruce M Bruce M.
