 Maybe it's not safe for me to bring the ark to my place in Jerusalem because I don't know what's going to happen to me. Lord knows I'm a sinner. This may not be safe. So David decides to conduct a little experiment. And as his guinea pig, he uses this guy, Obed Edom, who lives in the hill country of Judea. And David says, I know what I'm going to do. I'm going to park the ark. I'm going to park the ark at Obed Edom's place and see what happens to him.
