Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

2 Samuel 6:2

_ _ from Baale of Judah — A very large force of picked men were selected for this important work lest the undertaking might be opposed or obstructed by the Philistines. Besides, a great concourse of people accompanied them out of veneration for the sacred article. The journey to Baale, which is related (1 Chronicles 13:6), is here presupposed, and the historian describes the course of the procession from that place to the capital.

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on 2 Samuel 6:1-5.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

2 Samuel 6:2

On which, &c. — That is, by, or before which, they were to present their prayers to God for counsel and succour upon all occasions. And this is mentioned here as the reason why David put himself and his people to so great trouble and charge, because it was to fetch up the choicest treasure which they had.
