David orders a census against God’s command, leading to 70,000 deaths from a plague. Through repentance, David seeks God's mercy and builds an altar on Ornan’s threshing floor, stopping the plague. This site later becomes the temple location. Still, God chooses Solomon, not David, to build the temple, as David’s past of shedding blood disqualified him. God’s plans endure, even through human errors. David teaches us about repentance and trusting God’s forgiveness.
