It’s a massive capacitor. Metal plates, gold in this case, separated by an acacia wood insulator which when housed in a massive tent made of layers of silk and wool would charge it with static electricity. Supposedly it would make an arc across the gap between the wingtips of the angels adorning the lid. Allegedly this arc communicated with the priests. Fascinating.
As to how it levitated, shook the walls of Jericho, or sickened (as described resembling radiation burns) many of the Philistines who captured it so that they hastily returned it, and how were the gemstone encrusted breastplates (Urim and Thummim) worn by attending priests involved it’s a mystery. Killing somebody who touched it would be unsurprising. It must have held kilovolts of charge. ZAP!!!
As for the Ethiopian Orthodox church’s claim to have it via Menelek (Solomon’s son via Queen of Sheba) bringing it from Jerusalem, why not? It’s a great story from a very old (3rd Century AD) and extremely well preserved Orthodox Christian Church. There are also Orthodox Jews in Ethiopia still sacrificing animals as from ancient days. Elephantine Island is another area of interest possibly connected to this history.
See also: Lalibela, the marvelous rock carved cathedrals of Ethiopia. Carved down into the ground. An enchanted place imho, but I’d never go. I’d die just trying to get there.
I thought it was an authentic replica of the one in Raiders of the Lost Ark. Id love to be wrong, but the one at Mar a Lago should have a chain of custody that could be followed.
Donald Trump has had possession of this item for a while now this is not a joke text. When he says this is going to be biblical, he’s not joking.
I don't know....have you read what happens when you touch that thing?
Never look at it if it's opened. That's the main lesson I learned :-).

I believe his is still at MAL and it will be Biblical! 🔥
