where is the ark of the covenant?

Answer 1

Ethiopia, the ethiopians have many rituals for the ark and even have a priest like guy who can never ever leave the premisice, they even say some people have died looking at it.

Answer 2

When and under what circumstances the Ark disappeared is unknown.—2 Kings 25:13-17; 2 Chron. 36:18; Ezra 1:7-11; 7:12-19.

Roman historian Tacitus reports that when Jerusalem was captured in 63 B.C.E. and Cneius Pompeius entered the sanctuary of Herod’s temple, he found it was empty. There was no ark of the covenant within.—Tacitus History, 5.9.

Jeremiah foretold a time when the ark of the covenant would be no more, but that it would not be missed and Jehovah’s worshipers would experience no hardship because of not having it. Instead "Jerusalem itself will be called the throne of Jehovah."—Jer. 3:16:

"16 “No more will they say, "The ark of the covenant of Jehovah!" nor will it come up into the heart, nor will they remember it or miss it, and no more will it be made. In that time they will call Jerusalem the throne of Jehovah."

Answer 3

You need to get yourself down to the Ethiopian highlands learn some phrases in Tigrigna, the local language, and you may be lucky to be shown one of the copies of the sacred Tabot, that is to say the Ark of the Covenant.

King Solomon placed it in the Holy of Holies of the Temple that he had built in Jerusalem. And from there, not long afterwards, it was removed and brought to Ethiopia. The Queen of Sheba (the ancient name for Ethiopia) had a son - Menelik - that in Tigrigna means "the son of the wise man". Although he was conceived in Jerusalem he was born in Ethiopia where the Queen of Sheba had returned after discovering that she was carrying Solomon's child. When he had reached the age of twenty, Menelik himself travelled from Ethiopia to Israel and arrived at his father's court. There he was instantly recognized and accorded great honour. After a year had passed, however, the elders of the land became jealous of him. They complained that Solomon showed him too much favour and they insisted that he must go back to Ethiopia.

This the king accepted on the condition that the first-born sons of all the elders should also be sent to accompany him. Amongst these latter was Azarius, son of Zadok the High Priest of Israel, and it was Azarius, not Menelik, who stole the Ark of the Covenant from its place in the Holy of Holies in the Temple. Indeed the group of young men did not reveal the theft to Menelik until they were far away from Jerusalem. When at last they told him what they had done he understood that they could not have succeeded in so bold a venture unless God had willed it. Therefore he agreed that the Ark should remain with them. And it was thus that it was brought to Ethiopia, to the sacred city of Axum.

The churches there are carved out of solid rock, and today the ark is said to be held within the Ethiopian Orthodox Church of ‘Our Lady Mary of Zion’ in the town of Axum -- 623 km. north of Addis Ababa....

To many Ethiopians it is not a legend - It is history. In the very distant past the relic had been brought out during all the most important church festivals. More recently its use in religious processions had been limited to just one occasion a year. That occasion was the ceremony known as Timkat, which took place every January.
However, since the turmoil and civil war in the highlands... it is unlikely that the true Ark will be used again in the ceremonies. Besides, even in time of peace you would not be able to see it. A priest, its guardian is responsible - and wraps it entirely in thick cloths before it is carried in the processions. There are about ten copies, which are housed in other churches and monasteries in the area, and they are used instead.

Answer 4

this object is hidden but many think that it is in a church in Ethiopia.
the current covenant that we should seek to find is no hidden
Jesus brought with him by him a new covenant . also the rainbow is a covenant set by god to show he will not again flood all the earth .
the rainbow when used by gays as there symbol is so offensive to me that its hard for me not to step away from gods will and do some things to correct that matter.

Answer 5

Some people in Israel claim to have it and some people who claim to be descendants of King Solomon in Ethiopia say they have it. It's gonna show up again because I think in Revelations it mentions the ark being in the rebuilt temple.

Answer 8

Some people believe it is in Ethiopia, that an illegitimate son of Solomon came and got it from his father because he was not respecting it. That is why there is a practicing form of Judaism in Ethiopia way before missionaries came.

Answer 9

I saw a documentary about this. Some academics think it may be in Ethiopia somewhere. But the evidence is only circumstantial. It was probably melted down long ago.

Answer 10

Unknown. There is a unsubstantiated legend that the prophet Jeremiah removed it from the Temple and hid it before Jerusalem fell.
