***In the picture that they show it doesnt even measure up to the real measurements that are depicted in the Taurah. If that is the correct measurements to begin with.
Ark Of The Covenant Revealed
The head of the Orthodox Church of Ethiopia has stated that the Ark of the Covenant will be revealed to the public. Abuna Pauolos is in Vatican City this week, meeting with Pope Benedict XVI. It is from this holy city that Pauolos confirmed the Ark of the Covenant’s presence in Ethiopia, and that he will be announcing its unveiling this Friday.
There was a programme on Channel 4 a few months ago, a man went to Africa to search for the ark of the covenant. He concluded that the original ark was destroyed and a new one made that looked like a round wooden basket / bowl, which was found in some museum.
Don't really know what to make of that, but it was fascinating to see him unravel the movement of one of the jewish tribes which then settled into a Black African area and had black descendents with the same customs as ancient jewish tribes.
Also the Jews of Israel claim that they have it and will only reveal the truth once their third temple is built.
Templars still claim they have it hidden somewhere...which is now somewhat morphed into the Freemasonry somehow.
Maybe it is still around somewhere cause I heard a scholar on one of these documentaries say something like "how can the the most important religious artifact of the ancient past just dissappear" and thats what exactly happened to the Ark.
Quite interesting. Few months back i came across with news that isreal will be digging a part of Al-Aqsa in search of some important documentary stuff in aljazeera magazine. I was wondering what it might be?
