Day 126: February 10, 2026 – I Chronicles 16-20 and Psalm 29

The ark of the covenant finally finds a home and makes its way into that home safe and sound. David continues his exploits and conquers all those territories that surround him, and even more. Chapter 20 begins in a the same way that the account of Bathsheba begins: In the spring time when kings go out to war, David decided to remain in Jerusalem. But the account of Bathsheba in 20 does not follow, just another conquest with David involved. We see the mention a few times of the people who were descendants of the giants, but they are all defeated, including the 24 digit monster. It does read a bit like fiction, but God prevails with David’s rule, that’s the point.
