Significance: David's gathering of all Israel to bring the ark to the place he had prepared (1 Chr 15:3) realizes Deuteronomy 12:14's command that offerings must be made "only in the place the LORD will choose." The Chronicler's emphasis on collective national assembly for this event connects Deuteronomy's singular worship site with David's Jerusalem, demonstrating that the king's preparation of the ark's resting place fulfills Mosaic legislation about centralized sacrifice.
