Houses the Ark of the Covenant

The ark of the covenant was brought to Abinadab's house in Kiriath-jearim, where it remained for many years.

1So the men of Kiriath-jearim came and took up the ark of the LORD and brought it to the house of Abinadab on the hill, and they consecrated his son Eleazar to keep watch over the ark of the LORD.
