KJV summary for : 1 Chronicles 21
Summary: 1 Chronicles Chapter 21 recounts a significant event in King David's reign, specifically his decision to conduct a census of Israel. This act, motivated by pride and a desire for control, incited God's anger. As a result, the Lord sent a prophet, Gad, to David to present him with three options for punishment: three years of famine, three months of defeat by enemies, or three days of a plague. David, recognizing his sin, chose to fall into the hands of God, leading to a deadly plague that resulted in the deaths of 70,000 men. The chapter emphasizes themes of sin, accountability, and the consequences of disobedience to God. David's recognition of his wrongdoing and his subsequent humility serve as a central message, showcasing the importance of repentance. The chapter concludes with David's purchase of the threshing floor of Ornan (Araunah), where he ultimately builds an altar to the Lord, signifying an act of worship and his commitment to restoration. This event not only highlights God's mercy in the midst of judgment but also foreshadows the future location of the Temple in Jerusalem.
