- Chapter 1,357 The Cornerstone of the World
¡ª¡ªA brilliant light appeared on Moses' face. This is not a simple expression description, but a description of a physical phenomenon and it is by no means a frequent occurrence. Moses had stood near God several times before, but did not get this result.
One of the typical examples happened just before Moses went on another 40-day expedition to Mount Sinai.
At that time, he was in the camp of the Israelites and had a long and close meeting with God. The meeting place was in a particularly holy tent, which was called the "Tabernacle". The fastest updated full text hand-printed
There, the Lord spoke to Moses face to face, as a man speaks to his friend. However, the scripture does not mention that Moses¡¯ face shone.
So, what is the reason for this result?
Is there no reason to speculate that the reason lies in those two commandment boards?
Indirect evidence for this speculation can be found in the Talmud and the Jewish Interpretation, because it is said that the two tablets of commandment were imbued with "the light of God." When God gave the tablets to Moses, "he held them by the In the upper third, Moses held the lower third, but the middle third was exposed, and the light of God shone on Moses¡¯ face.¡±

This is not the case with the first pair of tablets, the two tablets that were broken by Moses. Therefore, scholars have reason to ask the question: Why is the second pair of tablets so different?
It was precisely because the first pair of tablets did not burn Moses¡¯ face that he discovered that the first pair of tablets as energy materials had technical flaws?
This would explain why Moses broke them. However, Moses did get burned by the second pair of tablets, which may prove to him that the method he used to process the tablets worked.
This also made him believe that after putting them into the Ark of the Covenant, they would function correctly
The radiance on Moses¡¯ face may not actually be caused by some kind of burn. This view is of course purely speculative and there is no corresponding evidence in the Bible.
Nevertheless, based on the few evidences in the Bible, I still think that this speculation is completely reasonable and as reasonable as other speculations
In Chapter 34 of Exodus, although there are only 7 verses describing Moses¡¯ descent from the mountain with the Tablet of Commandments, they already make it very clear that Moses¡¯ Nirvana after arriving at the camp was so strange that all the Israelites People are afraid of getting close to it
In order to eliminate this feeling among the people, Moses covered his face with a veil. From then on, Moses always covered his face with this veil except when he was alone in his tent.
It sounds like these words are less like describing the behavior of a person who is illuminated by the radiance of God, and more like describing the behavior of a person who is severely burned by some powerful energy material.
Is it not?
Testimonies to the Lost Truth allow for endless inferences about the true nature of the Ark, as well as its contents. Scholars have gone as far as possible along this line of thinking.
However, researchers willing to extrapolate further may find it interesting to first examine the materials from which the Ark of the Covenant was made.
Because it seems that a large amount of gold was used to make the Ark of the Covenant. Gold is beautiful and noble, does not react chemically, and is extremely thick. Specifically, a knowledgeable rabbi believed that the "mercy seat" of the Ark of the Covenant was the sacred object. The cover is as thick as a palm
According to ancient tradition, the length of a palm is from the tip of the thumb to the tip of the extended little finger
In other words, the cover of the Ark of the Covenant is a heavy solid gold plate, 9 inches thick. Why does it have to use so much precious metal?
Rabbi Shelomoise Schaki, who provided this information, and many other wise men related to this sacred object were born in the city of Troyes in the central region of Champagne, France, and spent most of their lives there. , isn't this a coincidence?
Troye is the home of Chr¨¦tien de Troyer, whose work on the Holy Grail created a literary genre that Wolfram von Heinbach soon copied.
It was also in the city of Troyes that Saint Bernard of Clairvaux drew up the charter for the Templar Order. In this way, the mysteries and connections involved were greatly increased.
Those who are curious may also want to consider the special clothing worn by the high priests of ancient Israel when approaching the Ark of the Covenant
duyidu.

They believe that if you don¡¯t wear such clothes, your life will be in danger. Is this just out of superstition and etiquette? Could they be protective clothing that had to be worn for some reason, perhaps related to the nature of the Ark itself?
There is another point related to this: before transporting the Ark of the Covenant, it must beIt was wrapped in a peculiar outer cover. The outer cover had two layers, one was cloth and the other was leather. This was obviously to prevent someone from accidentally touching the Ark and being killed by it during transportation.
Even with all these precautions, however, the Ark sometimes caused the death of those who carried it, striking them with "sparks"
Ginsburg said in "The Legend of the Jews": The Ark of the Covenant "can emit sparks that destroy the enemies of Israel." But what are these sparks?
Isn¡¯t it possible that the protective cover of the Ark of the Covenant, which is made entirely of non-conductive materials, is used as an insulator?
There is another story in the Bible that will arouse the interest of scholars, that is, shortly after the ark of the covenant was put into the tabernacle, Aaron's two sons Nadab and Abihu were killed by the ark of the covenant. This has been described in the previous post Event, the Bible says, fire came out of the Ark of the Covenant, "and burned them up, and they died before the Lord."
What is surprising is that after the death of these two people, Moses did not bury them according to the traditional long funeral ceremony of the Hebrews. Instead, he ordered that the bodies be immediately carried to a place far outside the camp.
Why did Moses do this? What is he afraid of?
Here, it is enough to look carefully at some passages in the Bible. Those passages describe the various disasters that the Ark of the Covenant caused to the Philistines during the seven months after the battle of Ezer.
From the time when the Philistines returned the Ark of the Covenant to the Israelites to when King Solomon finally placed the Ark into the inner temple of the Temple in Jerusalem, some events occurred in the intervening years
A closer look at these events could unravel many mysteries
Scholars believe that there is an explanation for the miracles and horrors the Ark of the Covenant produced during this period, and that this reasonable explanation is related to the nature of the Ark because it is a man-made device
Therefore, this explanation has nothing to do with any gods or supernatural forces
We came to the conclusion that only by viewing the Ark of the Covenant as a tool made by man, rather than as a repository of supernatural forces, can we correctly understand this sacred object.
There is no doubt that this tool is completely different from any tool known to mankind today, but it is still a product of human ingenuity, invented by man, and its function is to serve the realization of man's goals.
In the eyes of scholars, even though the Ark is a man-made tool, its magic and mystery have not diminished at all. It is a gift left to us by an ancient secret science. Some scholars believe that this science is a The key can lead us to the sealed and forgotten history of mankind
It is a mark that marks the forgotten glory of mankind. It is a witness to the lost truth of our own humanity. It is also a reasonable explanation for Hitler and others to search for the Aryan race and study mysterious semiotics.
If the pursuit of the Ark of the Covenant or the Holy Grail is not the pursuit of knowledge, the pursuit of wisdom, the pursuit of enlightenment, the pursuit of transcendent civilization, it is the exploration of truth and truth, this is science, this is knowledge
The exploration of the Ark of the Covenant is indeed a huge task. It is not just a matter of religious belief but also involves many esoteric knowledge and technical secrets. About this, all the powerful countries in the West are well aware of this, and only those who are even connected with it are aware of this. Only underdeveloped areas where the problem of food and clothing has not been solved will regard food, clothing, housing and transportation as the whole of history.
Scientists analyze and organize relatively accurate documents and historical records. In the past, most people would not have imagined the current level of science and technology.
So when you reach this level and look at the origins of religion and ancient historical records, you will come to different conclusions. In ancient times, was religion actually just a continuation of worship of ancient human civilization and technology?
Religion and the progress of the world are not created by a simple group of people acting as slaves, but are only controlled by some top people. The following people just follow their voices, mediocre, and enjoy the things brought by technological civilization.
There are many people who don¡¯t even know what science is, but they praise and promote it every day. This is superstition. Just like in ancient times, farmers who have never even seen the Buddha and gods still worship them. The so-called superstition is originally such a state. That's all
In the past history, Solomon gathered the elders of Israel to Jerusalem, and the priests carried the Ark of the Covenant of the Lord into the inner temple, the Holy of Holies. When the priests came out of the Holy Place, a cloud filled the Temple of the Lord, and the priests could not stand to minister. , for the glory of the LORD filled the temple
Then Solomon said, "The LORD said, 'He will dwell in the dark places. I have built a house for you as a dwelling place, an everlasting dwelling place for you. Is it true that God dwells on earth?' Behold, the heavens and the heavens of heaven are not enough." How much more shall you dwell in the house which I have built?¡±
There is an Armenian residential area on one side and a Christian residential area on the other. The main building is the Church of the Holy Sepulchre. This magnificent building has the "Church of the Invention Cross"
In 1187 AD, MuAfter Saladin, the commander of Sirin, drove away the Crusaders from the Holy City, at the request of King Lalibela, he gave the chapel to the Ethiopians in Jerusalem for use.
Later, the Ethiopians lost the privilege of using this chapel but they still occupied a spacious monastery on the top floor of the church.
The Round Temple of the Rock is of great significance to Muslims, but because it was built on the original site of Solomon's Temple. There is a huge stone in the temple, which orthodox Jews believe is the "cornerstone of the world."
In the 10th century BC, Solomon himself personally placed the Ark of the Covenant into the "deep darkness" of the inner temple on this huge stone.
Another building a few hundred meters south of the Rotunda is the El-Aqsa Mosque. In the 12th century, the Templars used it as their headquarters.
They may have started their investigation of the cave under the "Cornerstone of the World" from this place. Some legends say that shortly before the destruction of Solomon's Temple, the Ark of the Covenant may have been hidden in that cave.
The Al-Aqsa Mosque has a spacious rectangular hall, which is regarded by Muslims as the "farthest holy place". It is said that Muhammad was sent here by angels during his famous "Night Journey"
But wherever the prophet prayed during his lifetime, it has long since disappeared. What is seen today is a mixture of different architectural styles, the oldest of which dates to around 1350 AD, and the latest from 1938 to Between 1942
At that time, the Italian dictator Mussolini donated these many marble columns, and the Egyptian King Farouk funded the restoration and painting of the ceiling of the hall.
The Knights Templar also left their mark on the Great Mosque. They lived here from 1119 AD until they were expelled from Jerusalem by Saladin in 1187 AD.
They contributed to the architecture of the Great Mosque, including the three central bays of the cloister. Most of the other structures they added to the mosque were later demolished.
However, their restaurant was demolished and the wide underground space where they used to use their stables has been completely restored.
Those European knights long ago, they were born and died here, and named their strange secret sect after "Solomon's Temple"
The ruins of Solomon's Temple are now the Rock Dome, only two minutes away from here. The reason for the existence of Solomon's Temple is extremely simple. The purpose of designing this temple was simply to serve as a "temple to house the Ark of the Covenant of the Lord." "
But of course, the Ark of the Covenant has long since disappeared, and Solomon¡¯s Temple has long since ceased to exist.
The temple built by Solomon was razed to the ground by the Babylonians in 587 BC. A second temple was built on the same site half a century later, and it was razed to the ground by the Romans in 70 AD.
Later, the original site was abandoned until the arrival of the Muslim army in 638, when a rock round temple was built there.
Amid all these changes, the "cornerstone of the world" has remained unchanged. Therefore, this sacred ground where the Ark of the Covenant rests has become a constant factor through all the storms in history.
It has seen Jews, Babylonians, Romans, Christians and Muslims come and go, and it still exists today. There is a huge yellow-brown stone there, about 30 feet in diameter, just below the dome.
Some places on the surface of the boulder are flat, while others are rugged. This is the "foundation of the world."
It is not difficult to understand why the ancients regarded this huge stone as the cornerstone of the world, and it is also not difficult to understand why Solomon chose it as the central cornerstone to build the temple.
It is rough-textured and symmetrical, standing majestically on the bedrock of Mount Moriah, as indestructible as the earth itself.
There is a carved wooden fence surrounding the entire central area, but there is a recessed section in one corner of the fence, where I can stand and reach out to touch the "cornerstone of the world." Its lines have been smoothed by countless generations of pilgrims before me, and it is very smooth. , approximate bowl
We walked around the "Cornerstone of the World". There is a ladder on one side, which leads to an empty space deep under the boulder. It is like a large stone cabinet like a cave. It is called the "Well of Souls" by Muslims.
Faithful believers say that the voices of the dead can sometimes be heard here, mixed with the sound of the river in Paradise.
Those prophets of Allah lived long before the time of Muhammad, including Abraham and Moses; Allah is also the only true God, no different from Jehovah, the God of the Ark of the Covenant
Some Jewish and Islamic legends mention that there is a sealed secret passage under the "Well of Souls" that leads to the deep underground. It is said that before the destruction of Solomon's Temple, the Ark of the Covenant was hidden there, and many people still It is believed that the Ark of the Covenant was there at that time, guarded by spirits and demons
12?The Templars in the 19th century may have heard these legends and decided to come here to find the Ark of the Covenant. Another version of the story may be of particular interest to the Templars.
It claims to be an eyewitness account: Moments before the Babylonian army broke into Solomon's Temple, a man named "Baruch" saw an "angel of God" hiding the Ark of the Covenant.
When the man saw the angel coming down and entering the inner temple, he took out the Ark of the Curtain and the two tablets of the commandment. The angel shouted to the earth: "Hear the word of Almighty God, and I will deliver it to you." What is yours, guard them until the last moment when you are told to return them, and do not allow strangers to take possession of them"
So the earth opened its mouth and swallowed them up
If the Templar Knights were indeed inspired by the above passage and went to look for the Ark of the Covenant under the "Well of Souls", then it can be concluded that they must have found nothing.
In their eyes, the so-called "Book of Baruch" can easily be regarded as an authentic ancient document, dating from the 6th century BC
However, modern scholarship later demonstrated that it was actually written in the late 1st century AD and therefore could not be an eyewitness account of the hiding of the Ark, whether by an angel or by someone else. Yes, it's impossible
On the contrary, it is a work of imagination and fiction throughout. Although it has a strange and exciting tone, it has no historical value.
For this reason and others, it is certain that the Templars' excavations on the Temple Mount were in vain. They may have later heard that Ethiopia was the final resting place of the Ark of the Covenant, so a group of Knights went to Ethiopia to investigate this claim for themselves. Is it true? This is one of the reasons why there is a legend that the Ark of the Covenant is in Africa.
"The cornerstone of the world", the Ark of the Covenant was once placed on it, and it was from it that the Ark later disappeared (to be continued) - Didn't finish reading?
