C. F. Keil and Franz Delitzsch on 1 Chronicles 16:43

1Ch 16:43 1Ch 16:43 brings the account of the transfer of the ark to a conclusion, and coincides in substance with 2Sa 6:19 and 2Sa 6:20, where, however, there follows in addition a narrative of the scene which David had with his wife Michal. This, as res domestica, the author of the Chronicle has omitted, since the reference to it in 1Ch 15:29 seemed sufficient for the design of his work. לברך is not to greet, but to bless his house, just as in 1Ch 16:2 he had already pronounced a blessing on his people in the name of God.
