How it got there is partly recorded in 2 Maccabees 2:1-8, a Deuterocanonical book: it was hidden after the Babylonian conquest of Israel to protect it from looters and destruction.
they had a machine that created food, various theories on it. thought to be powered by nuclear energy is why people died if they tried touching it without training.
Interesting theory I heard so far, and who knows right, is that the Ark contained a nuclear reactor/device of some sort, damaged or leaking radiation… basically, either alien tech OR ancient tech long lost forgotten.
The Word is to be taken in literal context. You have to read it through the eyes of those who wrote it. What were their manners and customs at that time. Very little symbolism in those 66 books. The Gnostics are the devil. Mamma say!
You are correct in that their is symbolism and meaning behind the Hebrew alphabet. Codes. But the key is to keep a balance. Go too far in one direction and you're a Gnostic. Go too far in the other direction and you think that God literally has wings (Psalm 91:4).
So then what was the physical object that the Israelites carried, and if touched, the offender would perish?
The Ark of the Covidant
Well done, fren.
My man, take the rest of the day off. You’ve earned it.
I think the Ark is in Axum right now and it will be presented to the King when he returns!
Is that in 2022 when he's nominated for Speaker or in 2024 when he's President?
looooooooooooool
u/#correct
The archaeologist Ron Wyatt found a very good candidate for the ark in Jeremiah's Grotto beneath the Garden Tomb, on the outskirts of Jerusalem:

I view it all a symbolic stories about something else, personally.
That said, there certainly could have been an physical object that represented the spiritual aspect.
If so, it was just a box that had a wood rod inside, the 2 tablets of stone and manna. With angel idols on top touching wings.
You’re right that the Bible has many meanings hidden beneath the surface.
But you’re sadly missing the most important point of the Word if you’re taking the entire thing as allegorical or symbolic.
Thank you for the response, fren. And I’m praying God reveals the Truth to you!
God did, and thanks!

You couldn't be more wrong.
They heavily used symbolism back then.
Idk where you got your info from.

Balance, my friend.
