“And he put the staves into the rings by the sides of the ark, to bear the ark.”
Exodus 37:5 (KJV)
Commentary on Exodus 37:5
The repetition 'to bear the ark' emphasizes the staves' purpose—enabling movement without profaning holiness. Everything about the ark's construction considered both its sacred status and practical necessity of transport. This balance (holiness and function, glory and utility) teaches that genuine worship doesn't choose between transcendence and relevance—God's dwelling must be both holy and accessible, awesome and approachable. Christ perfectly embodies this: infinitely holy yet 'touched with the feeling of our infirmities' (Hebrews 4:15).
