The smiting for looking in the Ark

The Israelites are at war with the Philistines. In 1 Samuel 4, they battle and the Children of Israel lose about 4,000 men and the battle. (v 1-2)
A change of strategy was needed. They bring the Ark of the Covenant to the battlefield. The mere sight of it sends the Hebrew camp into a joyous uproar!
Hearing the Israelites hooting and cheering, the Philistines want to know what the heck is going on. Somehow they hear that the Ark is in Hebrew camp and they are afraid.

7And the Philistines were afraid, for they said, God is come into the camp. And they said, Woe unto us! for there hath not been such a thing heretofore.

Now that the Ark is in the Hebrew camp, they are ready to rumble with the heathen Philistines. They can't lose, right?

10And the Philistines fought, and Israel was smitten, and they fled every man into his tent: and there was a very great slaughter; for there fell of Israel thirty thousand footmen.
11And the ark of God was taken; and the two sons of Eli, Hophni and Phinehas, were slain.

At least God gets back at them for stealing from Him. As the Ark comes into Palestina, God smites their rectums. People start dropping dead from a plague that causes rats to overrun the place and emerods (hemorrhoids). 1 Sam 5:6.

After seeing all the destruction the ark caused, the Philistines decide they had best to give it back with a sorry note and offering about stealing your god. They decide to craft five golden mice and five golden hemorrhoids one for each of the Lords of Palestina with a nice new cart and succulent young cows to pull it.

50,070 dead!

The Israelites took back the Ark, but they looked into it. God doesn't allow anyone to look upon the Holy of Holies except the priests. In a well measured burst of rage God killed 50,070 men for that.

19And he smote the men of Bethshemesh, because they had looked into the ark of the LORD, even he smote of the people fifty thousand and threescore and ten men: and the people lamented, because the LORD had smitten many of the people with a great slaughter.
