1 | Did Uzzah has given chance to repent | Num 4:15 | jlpangilinan | 93426 | ||
I have simple querry with the verse below In 2Sa 6:6 ¶ And when they came to Nachon's threshingfloor, Uzzah put forth his hand to the ark of God, and took hold of it; for the oxen shook it. 2Sa 6:7 And the anger of the LORD was kindled against Uzzah; and God smote him there for his error; and there he died by the ark of God. If we analyze what happened I think the motive of Uzzah really is to protect the ark of covenant to fall or break, or as a human instinct it could be a reaction if you saw something falling down. Why God killed him right away? In 1Jo 1:9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. It was written there that if we confess our sins, He will cleanse us from all unrighteousness, did Uzzah has the chance to confess and ask forgiveness? How could he ask forgiveness if God killed him right away? God bless, |

Johnny, Only God knows the answer to your question. It is not to be found in any passage of scripture. Everyone is not guarenteed the oppourtunity to repent. Scripture only says that if your repent God will forgive. It does not say you will get the chance. David in 1 Chronicles 15 attributes the incident to God's anger that Levites were not transporting the Ark as they should have. But that still does not answer your specific question about Uzzah. 1 Chronicles 13: 10-12 Then the LORD became angry with Uzzah and struck him; he died there in God's presence, because he had laid his hand on the ark. David was disturbed because the LORD'S anger had broken out against Uzzah. Therefore that place has been called Perez-uzza even to this day. David was now afraid of God, and he said, "How can I bring the ark of God with me?" 1 Chronicles 15:11-15 David summoned the priests Zadok and Abiathar, and the Levites Uriel, Asaiah, Joel, Shemaiah, Eliel, and Amminadab, and said to them: "You, the heads of the levitical families, must sanctify yourselves along with your brethren and bring the ark of the LORD, the God of Israel, to the place which I have prepared for it. Because you were not with us the first time, the wrath of the LORD our God burst upon us, for we did not seek him aright." Accordingly, the priests and the Levites sanctified themselves to bring up the ark of the LORD, the God of Israel. The Levites bore the ark of God on their shoulders with poles, as Moses had ordained according to the word of the LORD. Emmaus |
