Pulpit Commentary

Pulpit CommentaryVerse 15. - (So see Exodus 25:13-15; Numbers 4:15; Numbers 7:9.) It is plain that from the first stress was laid upon the rings and the staves through them by which the ark was to be carried, as also the "table of shittim wood" (Exodus 25:26-28) and the "altar" (Exodus 27:4-7) and the "altar of incense" (Exodus 30:4, 5). However, these rings and staves were not found in the permanent furniture of the temple, except only for the ark.

Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(15) And the children of the Levites bare the ark of God.--The priests and Levites, having purified themselves (1Chronicles 15:14), duly and rightly discharged their sacred office of bearing the Ark. This statement anticipates 1Chronicles 15:25, sqq. Such brief anticipative summaries of a series of events afterwards described in detail are very common in Hebrew narrative.Upon their shoulders with the staves there-on.--Literally, with their shoulder, with the poles upon themselves.As Moses commanded according to the word of the Lord.--Numbers 7:9; Numbers 4:15; Exodus 25:13-15. . . .
