Based on 2 Samuel 6:1-23, the Chronicler greatly expands the story of bringing the Ark to Jerusalem. The account highlights two key moments: the first attempt at transfer (13) and the final transfer of the Ark to Jerusalem (15-16). These events are separated by the story of the war against the Philistines (14). It concludes with Nathan’s prophecy (17). The focus shifts to the religious significance: the Ark, as a symbol of God’s presence; the worship in the city; and the Temple that Nathan foresees.
