Gad being sent from God to propose one out of three plagues to his choice, he chooseth three days' pestilence. Seventy thousand in Israel being already cut off, the destroying angel is stayed over Jerusalem: David on sight of the angel humbly intercedeth for the people. By Gad's direction having bought Ornan's threshing floor, he buildeth an altar, and sacrificeth: God signifieth his favour by fire from heaven, and stayeth the plague. 1 Chronicles 21 Preface - The apostle's address to the strangers elect in Christ, dispersed throughout the lesser Asia.

Manasseh...did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, after the abominations of the heathen...and he reared up altars for Baal...and he built altars for all the host of heaven in the two courts of the house of the LORD.
