FATE OF THE ARK OF THE COVENANT
Everybody knows the rules... No Peeking!!!
And their faces -- a man to his brother (Exodus 25:20)
Detailed close-up:
A US Government warehouse was the perfect place to stash the Ark of the Covenant, because who would be able to sort through and decipher the vast lists of bureaucratic acronyms. They could mean any number of things. There are even acronyms for acronyms. The pit is deep. The Ark belongs with the Hebrews, in any case:
United States (ARtzot HaBrit):
ארה"ב
Ark of the Covenant (ARon HaBrit):
ארה"ב
Of course, no one is actually going to use the abbreviation ארה"ב for the Ark of the Covenant, because then the Ark might get confused with the United States. Perfect! ;)
2 Maccabees 2
5 Jeremiah came and found a cave-dwelling, and he brought there the tent and the ark and the altar of incense; then he sealed up the entrance.
6 Some of those who followed him came up intending to mark the way, but could not find it.
7 When Jeremiah learned of it, he rebuked them and declared: The place shall remain unknown until God gathers his people together again and shows his mercy.
8 Then the Lord will disclose these things, and the glory of the Lord and the cloud will appear, as they were shown in the case of Moses, and as Solomon asked that the place should be specially consecrated.
WERE THE HANGING GARDENS OF BABYLON REAL?
I know just the place. It's right down the street from Mars, even where Jupiter aligns with Mars.
