Theological / Devotional

As a king. This passage should read: “All these things, O king, does Araunah give unto the king.” As soon as Araunah knew that David desired the threshing floor for an altar he was willing to give it to him, together with the oxen and threshing instruments.

He was willing to make his own personal sacrifice in order that the plague might be stayed.
