An ApplicationNotice in 2SA 6:6 it says the oxen stumbled. It doesn't say anything about the Ark, though the implication is presumed obvious. Uzzah was just showing respect, but God doesn't want our respect as much as He wants our obedience (1SA 15:22). He was very specific about how the Ark was to be handled: EX 25:12-15 & NUM 7:6-9. / Man-made isn't as good as God-made, despite our preference for higher tech or our aversion to dirt (DT 27:5).

Connect the DotsGod took treatment of the object which bore His name (2SA 6:2) very seriously, as previously observed in LEV 16:2, NUM 1:51, 4:15, and 1SA 6:19. / Originally Michal adored David (1SA 18:20, 19:11-14) but after being given to another man (1SA 25:44) she seems to have resented being returned to David (2SA 6:20). / 2SA 6:22a is more famous in the NIV translation.
