Bah! Everyone knows the Ark is at the bottom of the pit on Oak Island along with a whole trove of Templar Knight treasure.

The newly translated text, called "Treatise of the Vessels" (Massekhet Kelim in Hebrew), says the "treasures were concealed by a number of Levites and prophets," writes James Davila, a professor at the University of St. Andrews, in an article in the book "Old Testament Pseudepigrapha More Noncanonical Scriptures Volume 1" (William B. Eerdmans Publishing Co., 2013). "Some of these (treasures) were hidden in various locations in the Land of Israel and in Babylonia, while others were delivered into the hands of the angels Shamshiel, Michael, Gabriel and perhaps Sariel …" writes Davila in his article.

Would it be too much for an article about the translation into English of a Hebrew text contain actual excerpts of the actual English text and actual Hebrew text?

Instead of quotes from third parties REFERRING TO the actual text?

Sheesh.

I had no idea Debka was publishing back in 1648 in Amsterdam.

Yeah, I know. But, it seems most of the translation has been out for a while and a google preview of his article '"Treatise of the Vessels"' can be fouund here.

I often wonder, The Ark was hidden or carried off by the Babylonians, or some other king who often took away the treasures of the Temple several times in history.

After the return from Persia, and the rebuilding of the Second Temple, WHAT was placed in the HOLY OF HOLIES till the Romans destroyed that Temple?

"shall not be revealed until the day of the coming of the Messiah son of David …" putting it out of reach of any would-be treasure seeker."

Why? Seems to me the reveal should have already happened then...

Nothing, it was empty.

***Nothing, it was empty. ***

That’s what I’ve always thought. Did the High Priest then enter once a year and still sprinkle blood there?

My guess: on a small-remote island in a large lake in Ethiopia.
