1.After seven months the Philistines take counsel how to send back the ark

Take the ark of the LORD
The Ark of the Covenant was the most sacred object in Israel, representing God's presence and covenant with His people. It contained the stone tablets of the Ten Commandments, Aaron's rod, and a pot of manna. The Philistines had captured the Ark in battle, but it brought them plagues, demonstrating God's power and holiness. The return of the Ark signifies God's sovereignty and the Philistines' acknowledgment of His might.

set it on the cart
The use of a cart to transport the Ark was contrary to the instructions given to the Israelites, who were commanded to carry it on poles by the Levites (Exodus 25:14). This method reflects the Philistines' lack of understanding of the proper reverence and procedures for handling sacred objects. It also foreshadows later events when the Israelites themselves would mishandle the Ark (2 Samuel 6:3-7).

and in a chest beside it put the gold objects you are sending back to Him as a guilt offering
The gold objects, shaped as tumors and rats, were crafted as a guilt offering to acknowledge the plagues that had afflicted the Philistines. This act of sending a guilt offering reflects an ancient Near Eastern practice of appeasing deities. It also highlights the Philistines' recognition of the God of Israel's power, even if their understanding was incomplete.

Then send the ark on its way
This directive to send the Ark back to Israel without human guidance was a test to determine if the plagues were indeed from the God of Israel. The Philistines' decision to let the cows lead the cart without guidance was meant to see if the Ark would return to Israel on its own, thus confirming divine intervention. This event underscores God's control over all creation and His ability to direct events according to His will.

What Does 1 Samuel 6:8 Mean
Take the ark of the LORD

“Take the ark of the LORD” (1 Samuel 6:8) calls attention to the sacred centerpiece of Israel’s worship.

• The Ark marked the very throne of God on earth (Exodus 25:22).

• The Philistines had captured it (1 Samuel 4:11), yet God’s holiness plagued them until they acknowledged His sovereignty (1 Samuel 5:6).

• Handling the Ark required reverence; only the Levites could normally carry it on poles (Numbers 4:15;Joshua 3:3). Even pagan Philistines sensed its holiness and treated it with cautious respect.

Set it on the cart

“Set it on the cart” shows a practical, if imperfect, solution.

• God instructed Israel to carry the Ark on shoulders (Deuteronomy 10:8), but the Philistines, lacking this law, built “a new cart” (1 Samuel 6:7) to avoid mingling the Ark with common use.

• Their action contrasts later with Israel’s use of a cart that led to Uzzah’s death (2 Samuel 6:3–7); divine standards for His people are higher than for outsiders (Amos 3:2).

• Though the method was not ideal, God graciously permitted it, demonstrating His mercy toward ignorance (Acts 17:30).

In a chest beside it put the gold objects you are sending back to Him as a guilt offering

The Philistines add “a chest beside it” filled with “gold objects.”

• Five golden tumors and five golden mice matched the number of Philistine rulers (1 Samuel 6:4–5), acknowledging God’s direct judgment.

• A guilt offering admits wrongdoing and seeks restitution (Leviticus 5:15–16). By using costly gold, they confessed that glory belongs to the LORD alone (Psalm 96:7–8).

• Separating the gifts in a chest kept the Ark undefiled, reflecting respect even from Gentiles (Isaiah 60:6).

Then send the ark on its way

“Then send the ark on its way” expresses obedience to divine direction.

• The cows pulling the cart walked straight to Beth-shemesh (1 Samuel 6:12), confirming that the LORD orchestrated the plague’s end (1 Samuel 6:9).

• God needs no human escort; His sovereignty guides events (Psalm 115:3).

• Israel’s joyful reception later required renewed reverence, reminding God’s people always to match outward celebration with inward holiness (1 Samuel 6:13–15;Hebrews 12:28).

summary

1 Samuel 6:8 records pagans humbling themselves before Israel’s God: they recognize the Ark’s holiness, treat it with cautious reverence, offer costly restitution, and release it to His custody. The verse underscores God’s unmatched sovereignty—nations must honor Him, guilt must be confessed, and even when knowledge is limited, reverence is required.

(8)In a coffer by the side thereof.--The reverent awe with which these Philistines treated the Ark, which had, they supposed, wrought them such great evil, presents a strong contrast to the careless curiosity of the men of Beth-shemesh with regard to the same sacred object--a careless curiosity, which was punished, as we so often find in the case of acts of sacrilege, with extreme severity.

Verse 8. -Put the jewels of gold... in a coffer. Instead of jewels the Hebrew word signifies any article of workmanship, and so figures, images wrought in gold. They were to be placed reverentially at the side of the ark, for it had wrought them so great evil that they had learned to look upon it with awe.
