I am under no illusions about what is going to happen in the future, and that the end is probably only a few months away. It is so sad to see what was once a very healthy and strong man to now what is a very skinny man with a big frame. He is 55.
How Much Did David Pay for Ornan's Threshingfloor? Claimed Contradiction: II Samuel 24:24 says that David paid 50 shekels of silver to purchase the threshingfloor of Ornan, yet I Chronicles 21:25 says that he paid 600 shekels of gold for this property. This supposed contradiction, like many others, rests on the shaky foundation of cursory reading.
2 Samuel 6:6, And when they came to Nachon's threshingfloor, Uzzah put forth his hand to the ark of God, and took hold of it; for the oxen shook it..avid, Uzzah, and the Ark of the Covenant. The Ark means a box or chest. The pattern of the ark was revealed to Moses in Exodus 25. It was to be made of wood, rectangular in shape, gold plated inside and out. It had a decorative gold border around it forming a rim on the top of the ark.
