David had at least 2 colossal fails in his life. This story is the aftermath of his second failure. The short story is that God called David to make a sacrifice, and David, wisely, decided he wouldn’t cheap out; he’d pay full price. God accepted David’s sacrifice and ended the plague. Better still, God used the site of David’s sacrifice as the place where heaven would come to earth, where the Temple was built. Amazing what God does with our obedience.
