What power did the ark have? (1 Chronicles 13:10, 14)

10 The Lord’s anger burned against Uzzah, and he struck him down because he had put his hand on the ark. So he died there before God.

... 13 He did not take the ark to be with him in the City of David. Instead, he took it to the house of Obed-Edom the Gittite.

1 Chronicles 13:1 - 14
