whatever happened to the ark eventually, it is a singularly fascinating device in the bible. Imagine a bronze-age people, with bronze-age vocabularly and concepts, trying to describe very advanced technology being demostrated, or being given instructions very similar to those used today to contain radioactive contamination (mt sinai), etc.

If this is of interest, the book of ezekiel is worth looking at too.

Bezalel made it and it went missing sometime after King Solomon, 3,000 years ago. Just saying...

The Gold of Exodus: The Discovery of the True Mt. Sinai
Howard Blum, Lynn Nesbit, Fred Hills.

Did you read? I loved it. It was the first adventure of Cornuke and his co-adventurer. Can’t understand why they didn’t make a movie it is such an interesting story.

Just looking at the photos of the “real” Mt. Sinai leaves you assured that the “church” picked the wrong spot.

Graham Hancock covers all of this material in more depth in the 24 min vid below as well as in his book The Sign and The Seal. Cornuke is just retracing work already covered in more depth.

Lots of fascinating subject matter here. As far as the Ark is concerned, the acacia wood would have deteriorated long ago. I don’t think anything remains of the Ark, the Holy Grail, or the True Cross. It does not diminish the historical evidence, however. Much of the Bible is straight historical narrative, and shame on scholars who dismiss it as such.

“Wherever it may be, the lost Ark of the Covenant has become one of the most sought after Christian relics in history.”

Christian relic?? Where does this guy get his “facts”? Seems to me that it is a Jewish relic.

Little-known theory?

The Ethiopian Ark story is the most popular one after the theories that it was hidden on/near the Temple Mount or simply destroyed by Babylonians.

Little-known would be that it resides guarded by tribesmen in Afghanistan/Pakistan.

CBN is re-running old tales as something new.
