Half-Measures, A Priestly Perspective I Chronicles 13-14 OT S1:E220

In moving the ark, and building his family, David was only half-faithful to the Lord. His decision to move the ark on a cart, instead of on poles, as Moses instructed, cost the life of a priest. His lust, and accumulation of wives in Jerusalem, is also not what God requested of the kings. These chapters remind us that David, great as he was, is still human.
