Michal came out to meet David as he was bringing up the ark of God, but she showed no joy in her heart. Instead, she scolded him for acting like a fool and lowering the dignity of the royal family.
Her words were laced with sarcasm, mocking David's behavior and implying that he had compromised the honor of the crown. However, David responded in a way that would have been uncomfortable for Michal to hear, revealing his deep devotion to God and his gratitude for the privilege of bringing the ark into Jerusalem.
