1 Chronicles 13:11
And David was displeased, because the LORD had made a breach upon Uzza: wherefore that place is called Perez-uzza to this day. And David was displeased, because the LORD had made a breach upon Uzza: wherefore that place is called Perez-uzza to this day.
The verse belongs to the transfer of the ark to Jerusalem, specifically its move from the house of Abinadab to the house of Obed-edom, where it remained three months before David brought it to Jerusalem. It records that the Lord made a breach upon Uzza by striking him dead when he reached out to steady the ark with his touch, and that David was displeased and afraid to bring the ark home, so he stopped the transfer and Israel's celebration turned to grief. The place was called Perez-uzza in remembrance of that breach.
The judgment came because God's instructions given through Moses for carrying the ark were disregarded: it was placed on a cart as the Philistines had done instead of being borne on the shoulders of the Kohathites, the priests, and then Uzza touched it. David later recognized that the breach came because they had not sought God according to the prescribed order.
David and all Israel acted with sincere motives, unanimous agreement, and joyful worship, yet made a grave mistake; the Philistines' use of a cart was excusable because they did not know better, but Israel's agreement did not make the same practice right. The account teaches that human judgment and good intentions are unsafe guides when they set aside prophetic instruction, and that a prophet's death does not lessen the force of the testimony already given.
