The Ark of the Covenant was portable and had been in the dry, hot desert environment of Israel before it was placed in the inner temple of the temple.
Andrew believes that the friction between the Ark of the Covenant and the hot air causes it to continuously accumulate static electricity, just like a car will generate static electricity on a hot day. "The strength of the charge depends on various variables such as humidity and temperature, as well as the length of the journey, the speed of travel, and the bumpiness of the road."
Andrew wrote, ¡°There is no reason why the charge strength wouldn¡¯t be fatal in this situation.¡±

According to this explanation, it is not difficult to understand why Aaron's son was shot to death after just touching the Ark of the Covenant. If the Ark of the Covenant is really an ancient and powerful electrical device, then where did the knowledge of its design and manufacture come from? ? Maybe, it's divine inspiration?
The ancient Greeks used amber and fur to conduct electric charge experiments, but they did not really understand the power they were manipulating. According to historical records, Europeans did not gradually discover the meaning and principles of electricity until the 19th century.
However, in the 1930s, near Baghdad, the capital of Iraq, archaeologists unearthed a clay jar whose internal structure resembled a battery!
When scientists added acidic electrolyte to the replica of the "Baghdad Battery", they were surprised to find that it could actually produce a voltage of nearly 1.5 volts. Could the power of the Ark of the Covenant come from this technology that was lost in time? ""

"The current history textbooks have always promoted the continuous progress of technology, but in fact, this is just conjecture. Regarding the true history of ancient times, part of it can be concealed while other parts have been completely misinterpreted.
Because it is very difficult for humans to understand the mysteries of God, because everything about God is incomprehensible to humans. Obeying God¡¯s words, that is, the Bible, can enlighten the entire human race.
The ancient burnt-offering traditions of the Falasha people, as well as some of their religious practices, raise serious questions about the orthodox academic view that Ethiopian Judaism was later introduced from southern Arabia.
However, the opposite is true. There is quite convincing evidence that the Jewish faith must have been introduced into Ethiopia during the First Temple period and it must have been closed in the country later.
Not only that, why did Judaism take root in the heart of Africa so early? "The Glory of the King" has given the most reasonable explanation to this question.
The core of this epic is the abduction of the Ark of the Covenant. Therefore, scholars must take the statement "The Ark of the Covenant is in Ethiopia" seriously.
There is clear evidence that the Jewish faith was an important force in Ethiopia before the arrival of Christianity in the 4th century AD
This evidence also shows that after the 4th century AD, a long and desperate struggle began between Jews and Christians. The winners of this struggle were the Christians, and they won the Ark of the Covenant in the struggle.
Since then, Christians have gradually incorporated the Ark into their non-Jewish rituals. This is the only satisfactory explanation for an aberration: a replica of a sacred relic from the Old Testament, Plays a key role in all the sacraments of the Ethiopian Church which is unique in the Christian world
Without this explanation, this phenomenon cannot be understood
The fact that these replicas represent the contents of the Ark, the stone tablets, rather than the Ark itself, initially puzzled researchers, but now it is understood that it is simply a part-referring-to-whole culture. Example of
There are more than 20,000 Orthodox churches in Ethiopia, and each church has a "Tabot" in the inner sanctum. Placing a mysterious and powerful holy object will immediately create a superstitious fear among the public.
Now it seems that this holy object may indeed be the Ark of the Covenant
The Ark of the Covenant may be inherently mysterious, thus always causing a series of problems, ambiguities and misunderstandings. It is extremely rare, extremely precious, and full of great power. It has been fanatically worshiped by people for many centuries and is loaded with the incomparable energy of God.
Therefore, it is almost impossible to predict that it will easily reveal its secrets, nor will it easily reveal its secrets to any unreliable seeker.
However, the evidence collected supports the statement that "Ethiopia is the final resting place of the Ark of the Covenant", which is enough to arouse in-depth thinking and encourage everyone to conduct further investigation.
What¡¯s more, if we consider this evidence together with the results from deciphering Wolfram¡¯s ¡°Parsifal¡±, we get:?A conclusion that is difficult to refute: 2 plus 2 is indeed equal to
In short, now that scholars understand the significance of the existing evidence, it is no wonder that they have come to the conclusion that the legend of the secret search for the Ark of the Covenant has been identified, and its focus should be on the Abyssinian Plateau
In the eyes of a group of knights, no historical relic is as suitable as the object of their chivalry like the Ark of the Covenant. The identities of these knights are closely related to the mysterious Temple of Solomon.
According to the same idea, this kind of chivalrous behavior can only be truly successful in a country where there is a realistic belief in the worship of the Ark of the Covenant, a historical tradition of the Solomonic dynasty, and a credible legend, that is, The real Ark of the Covenant is in that country
Therefore, most people believed that their hypothesis was correct, that the Templars had searched for the Ark of the Covenant in Ethiopia in the late 12th century. Most people also believed that they had found the sacred object, and Wolfram attributed their success to Described as "the fulfillment of a true wish"
However, they lost the Ark of the Covenant again. Someone took the Ark from the Templars, forcing them to leave Ethiopia empty-handed.
Because long after the Knights of Solomon's Templar were completely destroyed in the 14th century, there were still a very small number of people who went to Ethiopia to search for the Ark of the Covenant. Not only that, although these later explorers went to Ethiopia at different times and were born in different countries, they But all are directly related to the Templars and inherit their traditions
The empire in northern Ethiopia centered on Axum could definitely be included as the most powerful and prosperous country in the world at that time. Its status was equal to that of the Roman Empire and the Persian Empire, and it could send its fleets to the distant Ceylon, Egypt, India. Compared with China, its architectural achievements and artistic achievements are also unparalleled.
It was the first bastion of Christianity in sub-Saharan Africa. As early as the beginning of the 4th century AD, the empire converted to Christianity and adopted the new faith as its state religion. This was more or less the miraculous conversion of Emperor Constantinople to Christianity. that period
However, by the 7th century AD, the glory of the Axum Empire began to dim. It had very few envoys stationed abroad, and its once formidable military power was clearly in decline.
This remarkable change, which ultimately led to the complete isolation of the country, was mainly related to the growth of Islamic hostility and the encirclement of Abyssinian Christianity. This change occurred during the lifetime and death of the Islamic prophet Muhammad.
Edward Gibbon wrote in his "History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire": "The Ethiopians, surrounded by the enemies of their religion, slept for nearly a thousand years forgetting the world, and being forgotten by the world."
The 1,000 years mentioned by Edward Gibbon, the great British historian, roughly ranged from the 7th century AD to the 16th century AD
To be fair, Ethiopia disappeared from the memory of the world during this 1,000-year period. This Christian country on the remote African plateau, which was once famous around the world and visited by many tourists, has gradually transformed into a place full of myths and legends. A mysterious country of magic where dragons and other monsters are thought to live
During this period, Ethiopia developed a culture that was both rich and special. Although this culture was self-enclosed and there were suspicions that its themes had been influenced by foreign powers, it survived intact and remained intact. Isolated from the outside world
In the second half of the 12th century, Prince Lalibela himself lived in exile in Jerusalem for 25 years. He also returned from Jerusalem to become the king of Ethiopia and built the monolithic churches that are now named after him.
When Lalibela left the Holy City of Jerusalem in 1185 to return home and win the throne, he may have been accompanied by a small contingent of the Knights Templar.
The primary motive of these knights was the desire to go to Ethiopia and find the Ark of the Covenant. In addition to this purpose, it is also reasonable to assume that they were very willing to assist the prince in achieving his political goals, because in this way, they had reason to expect that they could control Raphael. King Liberela had a major impact
Later, I heard an Ethiopian legend, saying that some mysterious "white people" participated in the construction of Lalibela Church. This legend is very ancient.
Indeed, when the Portuguese priest Francisco Alvarez first recorded the legend in the early 16th century, it was already very old.
The Templars were excellent builders and architects, so it is difficult to deny the conclusion that they may have been the "white men" involved in building those monolithic churches.
What¡¯s more, since those churches took 24 years to build, this means that these knights have at least lived in Ethiopia for a long time, and may have even intended to intervene in the country¡¯s affairs for a longer period of time.
As the analysis progresses, it is first necessary to understand the brutality of the Templar Order in the early 14th century.It is also necessary to compare their experiences with some events that occurred in Ethiopia during the same period.
The Templars of the Dark Ages were founded in 1119 AD and were officially recognized by the church at the Troye Church Council in 1128. Since then, they have rapidly developed into a powerful sect with huge power, wealth and prestige in countries around the world.
However, this status also doomed them to destruction in less than two centuries
The history of the catastrophic collapse of this sect occurred on Friday, October 13, 1307, when all the Templars living in France were suddenly arrested
This was a well-planned mass arrest. At dawn that day, inspectors and executioners sent by French King Philip IV simultaneously raided hundreds of Templar residences.
By nightfall, 15,000 people had been arrested, and Friday had earned a unique place in the public imagination as the most unlucky and unlucky date on the calendar.
The Templars were suddenly and humiliatingly arrested, and the charges against them were both lurid and unfounded. For example, one of their crimes was denying Christ and spitting on the statue of Christ.
In addition, there is obscene kissing between each other, "according to the blasphemous rituals of this religion, which humiliates human dignity." It is said that when Protestant friends are religious, their navel and mouth will be kissed. There is an equally serious crime: they worship idols
This period lasted until 1377, when the papal residence was located in Avignon in the Provence province of France. There is no need to explain why the pope does not live in the Vatican.
However, the move of the Holy See to a location so close to France clearly gave King Philip great influence over Pope Clement V, an influence aimed at the total annihilation of the Templar cult.
Philip decided not only to exterminate the Templars throughout France, but also to exterminate them in all countries where the sect existed. To this end, the French monarch put pressure on Clement V, which eventually led to the Pope signing a bull ordering his arrest. Templars throughout Christendom
The UK, Spain, Germany, Italy and Cyprus all started mass arrests. In 2007, the puppet pope issued another edict, announcing the formal outlawing of the Templar Cult.
At the same time, thousands of Templars were subjected to the most horrific tortures, and many of them were burned at the stake, including the masters of the cult, James de Moray, and the Bishop of Normandy, Geoffroyd Chanet

No evidence has been found in documents relating to the last century of the sect's existence that the sect went to Ethiopia in search of the Ark. After the early part of that century, the search for the Ark gradually cooled down from that time until the mass arrests of 1307. During this period, this sect seemed only interested in fighting in the Near East and only concerned about accumulating its own strength and wealth.
Not only that, the early visitors to Ethiopia were all Portuguese, but the Portuguese's interest in the country ruled by "Prester John" became public less than a century after the destruction of the Knights Templar, and Christianity has since From the very beginning, I was a pioneer in visiting Ethiopia.
In terms of visiting Ethiopia, the earliest and most active figure supported by solid evidence was Prince Henry the Navigator
He is a master of the "Christian religion". His biographer said that he was "firm-willed, sharp-minded, outstandingunparalleled and ambitious in achieving noble and great causes."
Prince Henry was born in 1394 and was actively engaged in seafaring activities in 1415. He himself said that his greatest ambition was to "understand the country of John the Prester". His contemporary chroniclers and modern historians agree that, He spent most of his distinguished career achieving this goal
However, all his achievements are still shrouded in an atmosphere of mystery and complexity. Edgar, the late professor of Portuguese language, literature and history at the University of London
Prestage once wrote: Our knowledge of Henry's sailing exploits is very limited, mostly due to the policy of secrecy he adopted at the time, which included the deletion of facts and the strict prohibition on the publication of historical works The publication of guidebooks for navigators was strictly prohibited. manuals and their voyage reports
Henry¡¯s era did have a strict secrecy policy, and even revealing the results of various sailing expeditions would be punishable by death. However, it is still certain: the prince was very obsessed with the idea of ??going to Ethiopia in person
To this end, he once sailed around Africa
As for the real purpose of the Portuguese prince, scholars can only speculate. It is generally believed that as an outstanding "Crusader Knight", his intention was to form an anti-Islam alliance with the Christian Emperor of Ethiopia. alliance
However, more than a century before Henry was born, all grand plans to win holy lands for the Christian kingdom had been abandoned, so it can be speculated that Prince Henry must have other motives and some secret purpose, and this Purpose may explain both his policy of secrecy and his fascination with Prester John
After further studying the life of this great navigator, it is not difficult to find that this motive comes from his identity, that is, his identity as a master of the "Christian Holy Religion" allowed him to inherit all the mysterious traditions of the Knights of the Temple of Solomon.
It is worth noting that Prince Henry was obsessed with studying mathematics and cosmology throughout his life, studying "the processes of celestial bodies and astrology." He was often surrounded by Jewish doctors and astronomers, who were very similar to the one described by Wolfram Phlegtanis, he "could see into the secrets contained in the constellations and announced that there was something called the 'Holy Grail' in the world. He effortlessly named it based on the astrology."
Another sign that the Portuguese prince was deeply influenced by the Templar tradition is that he never married. Christian Knights are not bound by the strict commandment of celibacy like their predecessors, the Templars.
Despite this, Prince Henry, like his former Templar Master, "never married, maintained the utmost chastity, and remained a virgin until his death."
Henry died shortly after making his will in 1460, and it was not until the early 20th century that secret files documenting the last ten years of his life were released.
¡°In these archives, a brief note was found which reads: ¡°Eight years before Henry¡¯s death, the ambassador of Prester John visited Lisbon¡±
Until now, the Templars still exist tenaciously, and have very strong strength and influence on Western society. Western civilization has hardly experienced too much devastation in the past thousand years, so it is on the verge of collapse. things are more complete than those in China
This is true whether it is culture or various secret organizations, and there is no doubt that knowledge and wealth are hidden in these secrets (to be continued)
