Robert Alter – The Hebrew Bible A Translation with Commentary

2 Samuel 6:14 And David was whirling with all his might before the LORD, girt in a linen ephod. Girt in a linen ephod. The wearing of the ephod surely underscores the fact that in the procession of the Ark into Jerusalem, David is playing the roles of both priest and king—a double service not unknown in the ancient Near East (compare Melchizedek in Genesis 14:18). The ephod was probably a short garment tied around the hips or waist, and so David whirling and leaping might easily have exposed himself, as Michal will bitterly observe.

INTRODUCTION

Dance has always been a part of human life. In fact, life can be described as a continuous dance wherein we make a lot of steps and encounter many partners. And if life is a dance then the world has become a stage for us as we move and experience dancing with God, the Divine Creator and mover of Life.

It is, above all, an expression of our being, a means to relate to God, an articulation of our praise, joy and prayer. Läs mer
