- Great Riddles Lecture: The Ark of the Covenant: Lost, Found, or Forgotten?
March 7, 2012
Dr. Annette Y. Reed
In biblical accounts of the wanderings of the Israelites after the Exodus and their settlement in the Promised Land, the Ark of the Covenant is celebrated as a dangerously powerful object--a physical locus for the holiness and worship of God. In the centuries after its placement in the Jerusalem Temple by King Solomon, however, the Ark begins to recede from biblical history. What happened to it when the Temple was destroyed, and where is it today? Dr. Annette Y. Reed, Assistant Professor in Religious Studies, University of Pennsylvania, speaks.
Great presentation, I learned a little bit. I promise I'll let you guys know when I find it.
I know im asking randomly but does anyone know a method to log back into an instagram account?
I somehow forgot my account password. I would love any tricks you can offer me
@Jon Caiden instablaster ;)
@Carmelo Dash Thanks so much for your reply. I found the site on google and Im waiting for the hacking stuff now.
Takes a while so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@Carmelo Dash it worked and I finally got access to my account again. Im so happy:D
Thank you so much you really help me out :D
@Jon Caiden happy to help :)
I suppose that if the ark of the covenant was found judaism, christianity and islam would be in a big trouble.
Fabulous, as any good old ancient fable should be. And, where might Dorothy's ruby slippers be, if I may ask?
Can't see air yet you breathe.Can't see light yet it illuminates. It all must be a fairy tale.
Thank you for posting this, Penn Museum! :)
Thank You Dr. Annette Y. Reed!
What is more believable: A magic box that kills and made the Hebrew tribes invincible or the Stephen Spielberg hero movie?
Easy, the Magic box
Thanks for warning me - I won't bother with this one.
more chance of finding the smurf villiage.
That is F...... funny!
And just as real.
No the ark is more likely. Don't be silly
The Ark containers both sets of tablets, the first 1 written by the finger of GOD and the 1 Moses wrote after breaking the first set, Manna and Aaron's rod are there also but I don't think that the rod fit in the Ark. The Ark was hidden by Jeremiah and it's still hidden in Jerusalem.
When they bring out to the public stage there will be a great war. Both in fighting and invasion. I believe that is why it remains hidden. Mankind is not ready to accept it back.
@@DavidLee-ik9up makes cents since the nations would see it as the most powerful luck charm that could go either way. 🐸🐸🐸
David Lee When it is revealed to us, the lab reports of the blood Ron Wyatt had assayed will be with it.
It's actually a big Tupperware container with god's lunch in it.
Lol, this lady must be wondering what happened to the academics who normally attend these presentations, all the questions are about History Channel and Ethiopian urban legends.
Actualy, three similar legitimate question layed flat on her(about analogies with the cult of Amun and historicity of the accounts) because she's a biblical/religious scholar so questions from academics would be pointless for this talk.
@@yanikkunitsin1466 I think she knew her audience as evidenced by the constant reference to a certain cartoony Steven Spielberg movie!
and daniken ? chariots of the gods
People with misconceptions and lack of knowledge are the best kind of audience because hopefully, they will leave a lecture better educated, and will be dispelled of all the garbage they have picked up along the way from pop culture and TH-cam, and reality T.V.
seems to me that the ark of the covenant is only mentioned in the Torah, and the Christian old testament. That means that the speaker is limited in documents that she can quote. I think it is unfair of some listeners to expect information that doesn't exist. She does bring in some cultural references, but any other information is derived or imaginary. Excellent use of available information!
Christian old testament is the tanach. Why call it by the name that those who much later misappropriated called it? That is ridiculous
great lecture! who knows...maybe the ark did exist ....for a while at any rate...
I like this.
Interesting. But searching for something which never existed = waste of time. Ditto the holy grail.
poor woman is in a state of panic for the entire talk.
I felt out of breath listening to her. ;_;
I'd panic if I were an academic or scholar and had to give this (ridiculous) talk.
@@justupostear3571 Me too.
IT NEVER EXISTED.
Neither do the Pyramids, well at least
an acceptable explanation, I wouldn’t cut anything out, For no other reason then the Pyramids exist. For the sheer size and mathematical architecture is mind-boggling, Ancient text is the only link we may have To the mysteries of history
PROOF IT NEVER EXISTED?
Very interesting, thankyou
Not another guns-for-Jesus daw-gawn Yank talking about "Chrishchuns". The Ark of the Covenant has absolutely nothing to do with "Chrishchianidy".
The description of the Ark of the Covenant makes no mention of a "mercy seat". The word used in the Hebrew is כַּפֹּֽרֶת - kaporet - which translates as "cover" or "lid" - in every sense in English other than a hairpiece. There was not "some sort of seat" between the כְּרוּבִים - Cheruvim. In rabbinical tradition, the space between them was where the שׁכִינה - Shechina - "G-d's Presence" would manifest. This was - much later than the original text - conflated with Kabbalistic מרכבה - Merkavah - or Chariot Mysticism - with the concept of the "throne of G-d" and was taken - along with all the other random pillaging - by "Chrishchianidy" and exploited to imply something that is not there in Jewish tradition or implicit in the text.
"Mercy seat" is a coinage first made by William Tyndale, the first translator of the Torah - the first five books of the Hebrew Bible - or Pentateuch and the Christian scriptures from the original Hebrew and Greek (1526) and is a "Chrishchun" gloss on the text, dishonestly intended to conflate the throne of the Kings of Israel with the role of High Priest, at the time of the emerging narrative as to what or who Jesus of Nazareth was supposed to be, having clearly failed to fulfil the temporal requirements of being the מָשִׁיחַ - Mashiach - or Messiah and so started to take on the attributes of High Priest, notably in respect of a deliberate distortion of his role on יוֹם כִּיפּוּר - Yom Kippur - or Day of Atonement (another coinage of Tyndale's). This conflation has led to כַּפֹּֽרֶת - kaporet - sometimes being translated - via the Latin Vulgate - as a "propitiatory" in some texts, with its misleading attendant linguistic baggage of "sacrifice" - an allusion which is entirely absent from Jewish tradition or interpretation.
The "mercy seat" did not exist. It is a figment of the "Chrishchun" imagination - as with so much about "Chrishchianidy" in respect of Judaism. It is the job of academe to deal in facts and facts alone, not myth, fantasy and fancy.
I learned more from your comments than from the 40min I tried to watch
I was hoping for scholarly or archaeological insight. I was SORELY disappointed. Many religious websites have this same biblical information, and present it better. She actually treats the Spielberg movie "Indiana Jones" as a starting/reference point. "Nazis..are essentially melted", "God himself is being carried into the promised land". Sadly, its not even funny.
She was describing how she first heard of the ark. Whats wrong with that?
Daniel 9:24 "Seventy weeks are determined upon thy people and upon thy holy city, to finish the transgression, and to make an end of sins, and to make reconciliation for iniquity, and to bring in everlasting righteousness, and to seal up the vision and prophecy, and to anoint the most Holy." KJV
The principle of which this passage speaks concerns what Messiah would accomplish. Hence, He would...."anoint the most Holy" As the fulfillment of the ultimate sacrifice Messiah's blood would anoint the Ark of the Covenant. Consequently, the Ark could possibly be beneath the site of the crucifixion of Christ.
Artsartisan maybe Briton is the holy land the 3rd temple of king Solomon STONEHENGE the secrets of Ezekiel's wheel a circle within a circle a rainbow in the sky is a ark some truths are metaphysical beyond the material world and religion , the seventh seal is beyond any crucifixion story which in truth is a blood sacrifice not very righteous, at most is food for thought or at very least . truth has no need to claim to be the truth it just is, things never are how they seem is a matter of perception not sight..
Artsartisan I agree with you.
Which has been discovered..
"And Lo...It was said that thou believed in a fable of great proportions"..David 5:11:62
Did no-one ever teach this lady the first rule of PowerPoint? Do NOT fill every single slide with large.amounts of text. Totally mars what could have been a fascinating talk and is instead a confused and relentless onslaught of words.
Don't worry. Had been a better PowerPoint display you would've just got a very concise presentation of horseshit based twaddle. smh
@@seanhammer6296 she takes an hour to tell me what I learned in 10 minutes of sunday school... but she is mess up
Maybe you have ADD?
I expect to hear academic lectures in this series, and not religious platitudes. Objectivity anyone? Cultural comparisons? Seems like she has only one source, only one reference work. Some might give her a copy of Jospeh Cambell's tetralogy and introduce her to the field of comparative mythology. This is little more than a recitation of religious dogma. Intellectual rigour - utterly absent. Does she actually believe this myth is factual?
Joseph Cambell is was a crack pot. He was all over the place not taking a firm stance on any. If you think about it none of it matters to him now.
I thought the topic is very interesting, but after a few minutes I couldn't stand this lady and her presentation. Screen full of text, she is in panic. I love most of lectures but this one is not one of them.
I always wondered why Moses didn't get smote for smashing that first edition of the ten commandments., I'll bet God was tempted to smite him good.,...smitten he would be.
"friend of God"
good point.
I guess the Lord was distracted by the golden calf, otherwise moses would surely be smote.
Why does the floor move?
She really outdid herself with those power point slides, way too much text!
"Summerians branched out from Israelites"- that's what"professor of religious studies" means.
I also liked how she ignored three similar questions about obvous parralels to the cult of Amun in Ancient Egypt.
I learn more from the comments of other TH-camrs.
Thank you.
I thought this lecture was supposed to be an intellectual study, not repeating religious texts.
Faith needs no qualification.
Those without faith would prefer objectivism and detail.
Quoting Raiders of the Lost Arc when Hollywood is full of soulless paedophiles was not a good start. I only lasted 7:40.
Peace & love to those seekers of truth.
There is no actual evidence that the ark of the covenant existed. The ark only exists in scriptural legend.
What??
this lecture is trying to give the impression that the 'ark' is real, or that the fairytales that include it have historical relevance. wtf?
What are you crying about?
it was if she was on crack the hole lecture she was bouncing all over the place. i love the amount of information provided but feel that information was given to usv in such a way i honestly felt reading the slide pics rather than listening to her was what helped me as she didnt tell me any other information nor points that werent already in each slide but was only made to be painful to hear told and repeated by her over and over again saying the same thing in a slightly different way as the last 3 times before what mostly wouldnt be the last at doing it again before next page where she would start it again. harsh but true and i feel i would love to watch her try this again after some more work n thought went into her oral presentation and her delivery and further disscussing what information she had placed up on each clip for us.
Man forgot the ark of the covenant first what was the covenant everyone looking for an ark forgot that whats inside is the valuables
The ark of the covenant was a symbol of the presence of God dwelling with his people, and has been made obsolete by the incarnation of Jesus Christ. The Bible makes no mention of it after Nebuchadnezzar seized it, because there is no use for it anymore, now that Messiah has accomplished redemption for his people and reconciled us to himself.
Hello us Jews are still here. Still practicing our religion. Nation still here.. We are not obsolete.
That is like Muslims telling you jesus was a prophet bUt Mohammed came and he is the last prophet and his revelation the last revelation and now you are obsolete and need to become Muslims. No less ridiculous than you saying that to us
Jesus was no christ just like christians would say Mohammed is no prophet
@@goldengun9970 Genetically, of course. But spiritually... Adam, where art thou?
@@TheSharperSword spiritually I soon will not be able to reply for a while. Preparing for shabbat. Again you are no different to some muslim mocking you. We have been here 3800 years and all our enemies are not. We are the eternal nation because G-d keeps his promises for he is not a MAN that he might change his mind.
And no genetically isn't it. We have converts every generation for 3800 years. You can't get any comment right
Lovely.
a bit too hysteric for my taste
I think its cute 😍
Fascinating subject; not such a fascinating exposition. A picture is worth a thousand words.
I was hoping for a more interesting lecture.
I've sat through more than a few of these lectures, I really feel that if you plan on doing a public presentation, then take at LEAST ONE Public Speaking class/course/seminar BEFORE you get on stage. The stuttering, stammering, breathy, rambling is really is off putting.
This woman have to learn giving lectors without hemmmmmm, then maybe she have something to tell meaningfull! !!!
I think she feels safe in her qualifications for the job.
Right after you learn English.
Not lost or forgotten..
Right, it never existed.
Not gonna get many animals in an ark that size. Even , one by one.
Hardee har har!
All rice will be raw
Rev 11:18 tells u the ark is n heaven
Also the pillar of loud n fire r never shown to descend upon the temple after nebs invasion so that also tells u. The philistines nor regular non levite Jews could b around it so it can't be possessed. Also we r under a new covenant so other than holy connection it is no longer legal. The law is written on my heart not stone. I drink from the grail every Eucharist also. I partake his body the specific cup is mute
Also the copper snake pole is void Jesus became our curse. The new covenant is luke 22:19. Q Cor 11:24.
Also stop citing maccabees n Enoch they're not inspired. It's apostasy. I wrote the book that debunks Enoch 1. You'll c I hope
Is that somewhere in New Mexico?.
@@billcur3654 Maccabees has always been the inspired, inerrant Word of God included in the Jewish scriptures and the Christian one. You Protestants just chose to throw it out two thousand years later in the 1500's, as if you knew better. You're such Johnny-Come-Latelies.
Btw, apparently you don't know what the word apostacy means. You Protestants are apostates.
Btw,
Rev. 11:19 Then God's temple in heaven was opened, and within his temple was seen the ark of his covenant.
Reckon it has been up there ever since the 3' curtain to the holy of holy's was torn into, don't you?
And should it be faked, make sure it is long enough for Aaron's budding rod. And that manna best not rot in a few days if removed from the ark.

Carrying it on their shoulders is figuratively lol wow come on peeps
its in Etiopia
Proof?!.
It's the Arc of the Contract and was Egyption not jewish.
Using a hollywood movie as a reference to find some mythical thing, these people are considered scholars? At least she has the politically correct terminology down pat
The ark of the covenant is the pact made with The Most High and is kept in the temple of the human body behind the ribs
Sounds like she got her career on the line... the woman needs to breathe and relax...
Yeah she's driving me nuts the way she sounds shouty and breathless and keeps pacing back and forth
I thought it was cute.😍
what if the hiding of the ark was not the ark itself but the how 2(build), the first electricas/radio astronomers
Lewis Charles Lee Larry Clark Barbara
The ark was taken along with the pillar stone, the corner stone has been returned by the Lord's messenger's, The corner stone that was rejected twice by the builder's, it is now the Chief Corner Stone. As the first will be the Last,
Our bodies are the Ark of the Covenant. God said He would Tabernacle "with men."
Really hard to believe this woman is teaching on the university level.
I'd like to know what was really in the Ark. It is hard for me to conceptualize a god in a box unless it is an idol. I guess the WORDS on the tablets where somehow a small bit of the power of the god. Fascinating stuff. Thank you.
No physical G-d was in it. God is not a man. Like 65 different verses confirms that. For example he keeps his promises for he is not a MAN that he would change his mind.
Answer: It's gone. It was never more than a shoe box, so no big deal.
Nuclear device.
I dream the move of the arc to Ethiopia so, I figured that is why they say children are starving there.
If you are a Professor you should be used to speaking before more than 10 people. And even if it's ok to have stage fright, you should have calmed down after 10 minutes. This lady was in a perpetual state of panic....
Utter rubbish and lies. Alan Wilson is the True historian
It's in the Washington DC Masonic Temple.
Nope, I got it under my bed!.
The aron is in Scotland, as Scotland was outwith the Roman empire it was thought to be a safe place after the eruption which destroyed pompeii, this was blamed on the arc. Likely to have been moved under the timeperiod of Vespasian or Gnaeus Julius Agricola who invaded Scotland at this time and after the first jewish uprising which caused the destruction of the second temple. The mushroom cloud over the arc because of where the tablets came from which was a volcano.
Or........it never existed....
@@davidhoogendyke2774 does donald trump exist? I have never met him, never touch him, how do i know that he exists. Therefore we rely on reading historical information from different sources to try and form an opinion as to what is real. Despit what you may think the arc is not very special, it was a timber box overlayed inside and out in gold and a solid gold lid. It was called the aron meaning box, or brit meaning alliance. What made it special was the broken tablets and the staff of aaron that it contained. These gave the box supernatural qualities and god himself would appear above the mercy seat. The tablets of moses were in the box, the box within the holy of holies, the holy of holies within the temple the temple within the tabernacle the tabernacle within the holy city of jerusalem, the holy city within the holy land. Without the arc there is no need for the temple, there was only one arc therefore one temple. Only when it was lost was there synagoges.

The ark is in Wales. It's under a mound upon a hill that has drainage. The farmer won't allow excavation.
The Ark of the Covenant is inside a cave located in Questenberg, Germany. See my video for proof. Look to the stain glass window in Rennes Le Chateau- it tells how to get in the cave.
The people asking the questions at the end shouldn't even be there.
Rev 11:18 tells u it's n heaven. God abandoned them. So no more pillar cloud or smoke. Or ark.
Here is the correct interpretation of Revelation 11:19 . I ask you to run this by anyone. I welcome being proven wrong. The definition so far, is irrefutable.
Let's start with some facts:
-- John wrote Revelation in Koine Greek.
-- John was the only disciple that stay by the
cross through his Master's death
-- The Greeks commonly used syllogisms
-- A syllogism in it's earliest form, defined by
Aristotle; from the combination of a
general statement(major premise), and
a specific statement(minor premise),
a conclusion is deduced.
-- Syllogistic arguments are usually
represented in a three-line form
(without sentence-termination periods)
-- Example: All men are mortal, and
Socrates was a man; therefore,
Socrates was mortal
-- Example: The Temple of the Lord was
opened in heaven, and the Ark of His
Testament was seen in His Temple. --
Therefore, the Temple spoken of,
belongs to Jesus, because it's Jesus
testament.
-- Revelation 11:19 fits the definition of
syllogism. It's represented in a three-line
form(without sentence-termination periods)
-- Greek grammar is VERY concise
-- In linguistics, declension is the inflection
of nouns, pronouns, adjectives, and
articles to indicate number(at least
singular and plural), case (nominative, or
subjective, genitive, or possessive, etc),
and gender.
-- A declension is also a group of nouns
that follow a particular pattern of inflection
-- Now we need the correct definition of
Ouranos. It's Greek word #3772 -- you
can reference Strong's or Thayer's. Here
it is:
1) the vaulted expanse of the sky with all things visible in it
1a) the universe, the world
1b) the aerial heavens or sky, the region where the clouds and the tempests gather, and where thunder and lightning are produced
1c) the sidereal or starry heavens
---------------------------------------------------------
The apostle John mentions thunder, lightning, voices[men's grumbling], earthquake and hail in Rev 11:19
You can see that one of the definitions of Ouranos is 1b) The aerial heavens or sky, the region where the clouds and tempests gather, and where thunder and lightning are produced.
Could it be that the apostle John, when writing this verse in Greek, knew that he had to be precise with regard to grammar and noun declension?
Could it be that the three part sentence structure of Rev 11:19 is a syllogism, and the declension of the predicate nouns, give us the original meaning of Ouranos, as the apostle John intended to convey - per Greek grammar and syllogism?
Thus, the text defines itself. There is no mistake here. John saw the Ark of the Covenant in vision, and saw the blood, and saw the earth, and CORRECTLY identified the earth as His temple, and CORRECTLY identified the blood on the Mercy Seat as Jesus blood, and correctly used the word testament in Rev 11:19, to indicate that His blood was a testament of death by his Lord(see Hebrews 9:16)
It's now apparent that the earth is Jesus Temple, and that the Ark of the Covenant which bears Jesus last blood testament, is here in His Temple[earth] for which He died, and it's been here the whole time.
Again, the Vatican appropriated authority over Jerusalem holy sights on June 8th, 2014, with the blessings of the United Nations. The abomination of desolation defiled the first alter. Jesus spilled His blood onto the earth alter before spilling His blood onto the Mercy Seat, as was ordained. Could it be that the Vatican will soon defile the Holy Place; if it hasn't done it already?
It's now a virtual certainty that the Ark is right here on earth, and that it's been here the whole time. It's also extremely likely that no one would have known about this had not the Ron Wyatt issue had happened.
Dan Ward - Yours is the best comment on this thread. Thank you for your acknowledgment of Ron Wyatt’s account. He was a man for our Father’s heart. These intellectuals are so misguided.
You do realize Ron Wyatt was insane, right?
"Thus, the text defines itself." Yup, that is the issue. Outside of the context of the Bible all this is just drivel.
Revelation is a much later book and in no way divinely inspired. Not a place to look regarding the ark. And Wyatt is a charlatan
@@goldengun9970 Well if you say it, it must be true
There are many fairy tales in the Hebrew Bible. The Ark of the Covenant is the Bible's longest fairy tale.
Wow you seem really broken up about this one. Show me on the doll where yeshua touched you.
@@KurtOnoIR Mr. Yes Hua left no foot prints in history. However, like most greek Gods, there are many stories.
