1 Chronicles 13:7-8

Is it not astonishing in the very first view of things, that David, and all his wise men, should have so far forgotten the Lord's commands concerning the ark, as to attempt the removing it this way. Was it because the Philistines had made use of a cart to put the ark upon, that Israel should do the same, when the Lord had specially commanded the sons of Kohath to bear upon their shoulders the holy things! Numbers 7:9.
