Hawker's Poor man's commentary

2 Chronicles 5:2-3

This assembly beautifully illustrates how all Israel is concerned in what concerned the ark. And how more beautiful still to consider, how all the redeemed of the Lord are concerned in what belongs to Jesus, whom that ark typified. Here let all be convened - our little ones, and even they that suck the breast!
