Editor's Note:
Originally presented as the author's thesis, Claremont Graduate School, 1974. After Canaan's settlement the Ark remained a season in the Gilgal tabernacle. Then it was removed to Shiloh until the time of Eli, 3-400 years (Jer 7:12), when it was carried into battle to secure, they supposed, Hebrew victory. It was taken by the Philistines (1Sam 4:3-11), who sent it back after retaining it seven months (1Sam 5:7f) because of events which transpired. After their 1st defeat at Ebenezer, the Israelites had it brought from Shiloh, welcoming it joyously. Israel was defeated in a 2nd battle. Philistines captured the Ark (1Sam 4:3ff,10f). News of its capture was taken to Shiloh by a messenger "with his clothes rent & with earth upon his head." The priest, Eli, fell dead hearing it. His daughter-in-law, bearing a son at the time, named him Ichabod—explained as "Where is glory?" in reference to its loss (1Sam 4:12-22). The Philistines took the Ark several places. Misfortune resulted at each (1Sam 5:1-6). At Ashdod it was placed in the Dagon temple. In the morning Dagon was found prostrate, bowed before it. Being restored, the next morning he was again found prostrate, broken. The Ashdod people were smitten with hemorrhoids & a mouse plague (1Sam 6:5). The affliction of boils was also visited upon the people of Gath & of Ekron, whither the Ark was successively removed (1Sam 5:8-12). After the Ark had been with them seven months, the Philistines, on the advice of diviners, returned it to the Israelites with offerings of golden images of hemorrhoids & mice. The Ark was set in the field of Joshua the Bethshemite. The Bethshemites offered sacrifices & burnt offerings (1Sam 6:1-15). Out of curiosity Bethshemesh men gazed at the Ark. As a punishment, 70 of them (50,070 in some ms.) were smitten by god (1Sam 6:19). The Bethshemites sent to Kirjath-jearim, or Baal-Judah, to have the Ark removed (1Sam 6:21). It was taken to Abinadab's house. His son Eleazar was sanctified to keep it. Kirjath-jearim was the abode of the Ark for 20 years. Under Saul, the Ark was with the army before he 1st met the Philistines, but the king was too impatient to consult it before battle. 1Chron 13:3 states people were unaccustomed to consult it in Saul's time. At the beginning of his reign, David removed the Ark from Kirjath-jearim amid rejoicing. En route to Zion, Uzzah, a driver of the cart carrying it, put out his hand to steady it & was smitten by god. In fear, David carried it aside into the house of Obededom the Gittite, instead of taking it to Zion. Here it stayed three months (2Sam 6:1-11; 1Chron 13:1-13). Hearing that god had blessed Obededom because of the Ark's presence, David had it brought to Zion by the Levites, while he himself, "girded with a linen ephod," "danced before the Lord with all his might"—-a performance that saw him rebuked by Saul's daughter Michal (2Sam 6:12-16, 20ff; 1Chron 15). Her derision prompted god to make her sterile. In Zion, David put the Ark in the tabernacle he'd prepared, offered sacrifices, distributed food & blessed the people (2Sam 6:17ff 1Chron 16:1ff; 2Chron 1:4). Levites were appointed to administer the Ark (1Chron 16:4). David's plan of building a temple for it was stopped at god's advice (2Sam 7:1-17; 1Chron 17:1-15; 28:2f). It was with the army during the Rabbah siege (2Sam 11:11). When David fled Jerusalem during Absalom's conspiracy, it was carried along until he ordered Zadok the priest to return it to Jerusalem (2Sam 15:24ff).
