2 Samuel 6:2
Verse 2. From Baale of Judah] This is supposed to be the same city which, in Jos 15:60, is called Kirjah-baal or Kirjath-jearim; (see 1Ch 13:6;) or Baalah, Jos 15:9. Whose name is called by the name of the Lord] That is, The ark is called the ark of the Lord of hosts. But this is not a literal version; the word shem, NAME, occurs twice together; probably one of them should be read sham, THERE. There the name of the Lord of hosts was invoked, &c. 2 Samuel 6:17
