Wesley's Notes for 1 Chronicles 13:11


13:11 Perez - uzza - That is, the breach of Uzza. Let David'sdispleasure on this occasion caution us, to watch over our spirit,lest when God reproves us, instead of submitting to God, we quarrelwith him. If God be angry with us, shall we dare to be angry with him?
