What does 2 Samuel 6:14 mean?

David threw himself completely into worship here, dancing with uninhibited joy before God. The linen ephod was a simple priestly garment, not his royal robes, which suggests he'd set aside his status and dignity to express pure delight in God's presence. Sometimes the deepest worship looks undignified or excessive to observers, but what matters is the honesty of the heart behind it. If you've ever felt moved to worship in a way that surprised you or didn't match your usual composure, you're in good company with someone Scripture remembers as a person after God's own heart.
