----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Ark of the Covenant (Hebrew: אָרוֹן הַבְּרִית ʾārôn Hābərît, modern pron. Aron Habrit), also known as the Ark of the Testimony, is a chest described in Book of Exodus[1] as solely containing the Tablets of Stone on which the Ten Commandments were inscribed. According to some traditional interpretations of the Book of Exodus,[2] Book of Numbers,[3] and the Letter to the Hebrews[4] the Ark also contained Aaron's rod, a jar of manna and the first Torah scroll as written by Moses; however, the first of the Books of Kings says that at the time of king Solomon, the Ark contained only the two Tablets of the Law.[5] According to the Book of Exodus, the Ark was built at the command of God, in accordance with the instructions given to Moses on Mount Sinai.[6] God was said to have communicated with Moses "from between the two cherubim" on the Ark's cover.[7] Rashi and some Midrashim suggest that there were two arks - a temporary one made by Moses himself, and a later one constructed by Bezalel.[8]

Lord of all(in heaven and on earth)is not equate with substance, nor can you regard spiritual things as secular。如果不然,請見《1 Samuel》chapter 4 through chapter 7。
從前人們在(屬世界)帳幕中禮拜上帝,曾經失去過上帝的同在;現在因為基督一次永遠的獻祭,......;接下去可讀新約《the Letter to the Hebrews》chapter 9 and 10
How do you say?
