21 They sent messengers to the residents of Kiriath-jearim,(A) saying, “The Philistines have returned the ark of the Lord. Come down and get it.”[a]

So the men of Kiriath-jearim came for the ark of the Lord and took it to Abinadab’s house on the hill.(B) They consecrated his son Eleazar to take care of it.
