II Samuel 5:21

And they left there their idols: which David and his men took away.

Away, and burnt. (Par.[1 Paralipomenon 14:12.?) The ark had on the contrary proved fatal to the gods, and to the people of the Philistines; who might hence perceive the difference there was between the true God and their false gods.
