David as a precursor of Jesus
They brought the Ark of God and placed it inside the special tent David had prepared for it. And they presented burnt offerings and peace offerings to God. When he had finished his sacrifices, David blessed the people in the name of the LORD. Then he gave to every man and woman in all Israel a loaf of bread, a cake of dates, and a cake of raisins.
David appointed the following Levites to lead the people in worship before the Ark of the LORD—to invoke his blessings, to give thanks, and to praise the LORD, the God of Israel. (1 Chronicles 16:1-4 NLT)
David lead as king. But we also note that during the transfer and placing of the Ark of God, David was wearing the robes of a priest, and functioned like the Chief Priest. He also distributed bread, raisins nd dates to all the people. This is a precursor of the High Priesthood of Jesus. David is not from the tribe of Levi, nor is Jesus. Both are from the tribe of Judah. Both are not priests ordained as per the statutes or the law, but by the Spirit of God.
