* During the time when Samuel served as a prophet of the LORD among all Israel, the Israelites camped at Ebenezer and fought against the Philistines. Facing heavy casualties and little chance of victory, the elders of Israel decided to bring the ark of the covenant from Shiloh to their camp, believing it would ensure their success. When the Philistines learned that the ark of God was in the Israelite camp, they were terrified. However, contrary to the Israelites’ expectations, they were defeated by the Philistines, and the ark of the covenant was captured. This defeat was attributed to the sins of Hophni and Phinehas, sons of Eli, who was a [[judge]] and high priest. Although they were priests, Hophni and Phinehas despised God’s sacrifices and committed evil deeds, earning a reputation as scoundrels who disrespected God.

David offered burnt offerings and peace offerings to the LORD and appointed Levites to serve before the Ark, leading them in praising, thanking, and singing hymns to God.
* Encouraged by the blessings on Obed-Edom’s house, David resumed the process of moving the ark. This time, unlike the previous occasion when proper procedures were not followed, the ark was carried by the Levites according to the regulations. When the ark of God returned to the City of David, David rejoiced with great joy, dancing before the LORD like a child. However, Michal, his wife, did not understand the significance of the Ark’s blessing and despised David for his exuberance. As a result, she remained childless for the rest of her life. David offered burnt offerings and peace offerings to the LORD and appointed Levites to serve before the Ark, leading them in praising, thanking, and singing hymns to God.
* After moving the ark to the City of David, David became concerned that the ark, where God was in presence, was still housed in a tent. He summoned the prophet Nathan and expressed his earnest desire to build a house for God.<ref>{{웹 인용 |url=https://www.studylight.org/study-desk.html?q1=2+Samuel+7%3A1-6&q2=&ss=0&t1=eng_n84&t2=eng_kjv&t3=eng_nas&ns=0&sr=1&ot=bhs&nt=wh&hv1=1&b=verse&d=3 |제목=2 Samuel 7:1–6 |저널= |quote= }}</ref> God promised that David’s son, who would be born to him, would carry out the task of building the temple.
