There are many theories
as to where the Ark of the Covenant can be found today. Some claim that it is extant
in the Church of Our Lady Mary of Zion in Ethiopia (careful: the site is
guarded by tribesmen 24/7) and some say it is somewhere on Mt. Nebo in Jordan (see 2 Maccabees
2:4-10, a theory apparently supported by the prophet Jeremiah). The South
African Lemba people claim to have the Ark (though they also claim that they
are Jewish) and some say that the Knights Templar took the Ark to France or the
UK. There are many other theories, as well.
Well, speculate no more. My friend and fellow former Torontonian, Harry
Moskoff, claims that the Ark of the Covenant is right under the Temple Mount in
Jerusalem. With maps, charts, and interviews –along with a pinch of Lubavitch
and Zionist influence- Harry uses both his rabbinic and filmmaking background
to take us on an easy to read adventure for the search of the Ark.
Here’s an excerpt:
There is one
section of the Temple that was never destroyed by Nebuchadnezzar, the
Egyptians, the Greeks or Titus and the Romans.
A place that is still in its exact same pristine form as it was when it
was built by King Solomon, as previously sanctified by his father, King
David. That place is that room, the
chamber that the Ark of the Testimony is in right now. Meaning, not just a
floor, but an actual room with four walls and a ceiling to literally house the
Ark. Since it was built with the plans
that expressly instructed that the room be part of the Temple itself, it stands
to reason that this room of the Temple actually still exists today, because it
still contains the Ark. This is the reason why king Josiah commanded to “secret
the Holy Ark in the house that Solomon built…” – because that room below is
part and parcel of the House of God itself
It seems
logical then, that this room would have stone walls covered with wood paneling
and plated with fine gold, just like the two floors in the structure above it.
In fact, and this is just conjecture of course, I’ll bet that the reason why
all these people throughout the centuries never found this underground
location, is because they were searching for a large golden box with poles,
instead of a stone chamber! They may
have even chanced upon what they saw as regular stone foundation walls, without
knowing that there might be a room within! Based on this theory, it is more
than likely that the Third Temple will also somehow contain this very chamber,
as well as the Ark (and the other items) within it. In fact, it could very well be that the Ark
won’t have to be taken out by the priests at all! Instead, the whole room will
be discovered and taken up to be the cornerstone of the next Temple.
I’m personally not
convinced that Harry has discovered where the Ark is located. And once we’re
on the topic, I don’t think that the Vatican is holding the menorah or tzitz
hostage, either (though I did ask around on my recent visit there).
What I will say about
the book, however, is that it is a great presentation on everything related to the Ark of
the Covenant and the Temple Mount. You can decide for yourself whether Harry's book (and
film) is “Holy Word” or “Hollywood.” One thing is for sure -- it’s a
sensational and fun read!
