Archaeologists Found The Ark Of The Covenant. Then It Disappeared Again. Ben Stiller [SOCVIqvgyFu]

In 1981, a man descended into a tunnel beneath Jerusalem and said he found the Ark of the Covenant. Then the Israeli government sealed the tunnel. Nobody has been back since.

The Ark of the Covenant the golden chest God commanded Moses to build on Mount Sinai disappeared from history around 587 BC when Babylon destroyed Jerusalem. It was never listed among the treasures Nebuchadnezzar took. It simply vanished.

In this video, we investigate what the Ark actually was (and why it was so terrifying), why the Babylonian records prove it was gone BEFORE the invasion, and the five most compelling theories archaeologists and historians have put forward:

The Babylon Theory (and why it's almost certainly wrong)

Jeremiah's cave on Mount Nebo (2 Maccabees)

Ethiopia the guardian priest of Aksum who never speaks

Under the Temple Mount the exact bedrock depression that matches the Ark's dimensions

Under Golgotha the sealed tunnel story

And what the Bible's only New Testament reference to the Ark (Revelation 11:19) actually tells us about where it went.
