Weekly Torah Portion: Terumah

"They shall make an ark of acacia wood (Exodus 25:10) Aron HaBrit - The Ark of the Covenant - performs no function in the Divine service, and is approached but once a year when the Kohen Gadol - the High Priest - enters the Holy of Holies on Yom Kippur - the Day of Atonement. It is the one Temple vessel that actually serves as a permanent receptacle - holding the Tablets of the Law. Yet of all the vessels described in the Torah reading of Terumah, the Ark of the Covenant remains the most compelling to the imagination. From the Ark emanates the supernal light of Torah and a reflection in this world of the perfected world and the pure light of the Garden of Eden.

[TheAnav]

Has not Father in heaven always managed His belongings Himself just fine?

Do you not know and havent you learned....

Secrets give a chance to a lie and that is forbidden and this shows what you think.

Even Philistines returned the ark so why the secrecy?

This supposed ark is that " abomination that causes Desolation " and it has to happen for Fathers Word to come to back to Him,fulfilled and not void.

For Man´s own racial pride and vanity,will the ark be set up.

Oy vey :(

Shalom
