carried the ark . Heb. made the ark to ride , at Numbers 3 . 10 , and again at #### Verse 38. A particular caution is given that strangers must not touch , or even pry into , the most holy things connected with the tabernacle , lest the offender die. In giving the law , also , even a beast which touched Sinai's mount was , by the Almighty's fiat , to be stoned or thrust through with a dart. And again we read . Numbers 4 . 15 after special orders to Aaron and his sons about covering the sanctuary and all the vessels previously to a removal , that the Kohathites , who were to carry them , "shall not touch any holy thing , lest they die." These were positive commands. May the sin of Uzza in touching the ark , warn Christians to take heed of rashness and irreverence in dealing about holy things. See note on 1 Chronicles 13 . 9.
