You said — I believe it will be in the newly rebuilt Temple.

If I understand you right, this is a personal belief you have and not that it’s a “Biblical belief” that you have that the Bible says so... is that right? I hope that’s right in my understanding.

I only mention that, because it’s common for Christians to say “I believe such and such...” in indicating that they are stating some Biblical belief — versus — stating something that is solely and totally on their own and that the Bible does say it explicitly or implicitly.

I like to distinguish between the two... (I hope you understand...).

And lastly you said — And it ends up in the heavenly tabernacle/temple.

Now, here I would like to make a comment. I understand that an ark is revealed from Heaven, but I also understand that the earthly ark was a copy of the Heavenly one. So, I’m thinking that what is revealed there is the original one and not the earthly one that was carried around by the Jews...

What do you think about that?

Just wondering... :-)

Good points . . .

Just my personal belief. I think the best we can do from the Scriptures concerned is to make extrapolated inferences.

Yeah, . . . a Heavenly one vs a copy . . .

I don’t know . . . I suspect . . . given the historic items . . . I think, IIRC, oddly, including the golden hemroids! . . .

sort of indicates that God has a . . . what . . . hobby, fascination . . . something in providing at least for man . . . certain . . . memorbilia . . . reminders of historic events with HIS KIDS???

Therefore, I believe that the earthly Ark will always have a certain place in God’s scheme of things.

We shall see.
