#27 Tabernacle: The Ark: Scriptures

EXO 25:10 “And they shall construct an ark of acacia wood two and a half cubits long, and one and a half cubits wide, and one and a half cubits high. EXO 25:14 “And you shall put the poles into the rings on the sides of the ark, to carry the ark with them. EXO 25:15 “The poles shall remain in the rings of the ark; they shall not be removed from it. EXO 25:16 “And you shall put into the ark the testimony which I shall give you. EXO 25:21 “And you shall put the mercy seat on top of the ark, and in the ark you shall put the testimony which I shall give to you. EXO 25:22 “And there I will meet with you; and from above the mercy seat, from between the two cherubim which are upon the ark of the testimony, I will speak to you about all that I will give you in commandment for the sons of Israel. EXO 26:33 “And you shall hang up the veil under the clasps, and shall bring in the ark of the testimony there within the veil; and the veil shall serve for you as a partition between the holy place and the holy of holies. EXO 26:34 “And you shall put the mercy seat on the ark of the testimony in the holy of holies. EXO 30:6 “And you shall put this altar in front of the veil that is near the ark of the testimony, in front of the mercy seat that is over { the ark of} the testimony, where I will meet with you. EXO 30:26 “And with it you shall anoint the tent of meeting and the ark of the testimony, EXO 31:7 the tent of meeting, and the ark of testimony, and the mercy seat upon it, and all the furniture of the tent, EXO 35:12 the ark and its poles, the mercy seat, and the curtain of the screen; EXO 37:1 Now Bezalel made the ark of acacia wood; its length was two and a half cubits, and its width one and a half cubits, and its height one and a half cubits; EXO 37:5 And he put the poles into the rings on the sides of the ark, to carry it. EXO 39:35 the ark of the testimony and its poles and the mercy seat;

EXO 40:3 “And you shall place the ark of the testimony there, and you shall screen the ark with the veil. EXO 40:5 “Moreover, you shall set the gold altar of incense before the ark of the testimony, and set up the veil for the doorway to the tabernacle. EXO 40:20 Then he took the testimony and put {it} into the ark, and attached the poles to the ark, and put the mercy seat on top of the ark. EXO 40:21 And he brought the ark into the tabernacle, and set up a veil for the screen, and screened off the ark of the testimony, just as the \Lord\ had commanded Moses.

LEV 16:2 And the \Lord\ said to Moses, “Tell your brother Aaron that he shall not enter at any time into the holy place inside the veil, before the mercy seat which is on the ark, lest he die; for I will appear in the cloud over the mercy seat.

LEV 16:13 “And he shall put the incense on the fire before the \Lord,\ that the cloud of incense may cover the mercy seat that is on {the ark of} the testimony, lest he die.

NUM 3:31 Now their duties {involved} the ark, the table, the lampstand, the altars, and the utensils of the sanctuary with which they minister, and the screen, and all the service concerning them; NUM 4:5 “When the camp sets out, Aaron and his sons shall go in and they shall take down the veil of the screen and cover the ark of the testimony with it; NUM 7:89 Now when Moses went into the tent of meeting to speak with Him, he heard the voice speaking to him from above the mercy seat that was on the ark of the testimony, from between the two cherubim, so He spoke to him. NUM 10:33 Thus they set out from the mount of the \Lord\ three days’ journey, with the ark of the covenant of the \Lord\ journeying in front of them for the three days, to seek out a resting place for them. NUM 10:35 Then it came about when the ark set out that Moses said, “ Rise up, O Lord! And let Thine enemies be scattered, And let those who hate Thee flee before Thee.”

NUM 10:35 Then it came about when the ark set out that Moses said, “ Rise up, O Lord! And let Thine enemies be scattered, And let those who hate Thee flee before Thee.” NUM 14:44 But they went up heedlessly to the ridge of the hill country; neither the ark of the covenant of the Lord nor Moses left the camp.

DEU 10:1 “At that time the Lord said to me, ‘Cut out for yourself two tablets of stone like the former ones, and come up to Me on the mountain, and make an ark of wood for yourself. DEU 10:2 ‘And I will write on the tablets the words that were on the former tablets which you shattered, and you shall put them in the ark.’ DEU 10:3 “So I made an ark of acacia wood and cut out two tablets of stone like the former ones, and went up on the mountain with the two tablets in my hand. DEU 10:5 “Then I turned and came down from the mountain, and put the tablets in the ark which I had made; and there they are, as the Lord commanded me.” DEU 10:8 At that time the Lord set apart the tribe of Levi to carry the ark of the covenant of the Lord, to stand before the Lord to serve Him and to bless in His name until this day.

DEU 31:9 So Moses wrote this law and gave it to the priests, the sons of Levi who carried the ark of the covenant of the \Lord,\ and to all the elders of Israel. DEU 31:25 that Moses commanded the Levites who carried the ark of the covenant of the \Lord,\ saying, DEU 31:26 “Take this book of the law and place it beside the ark of the covenant of the \Lord\ your God, that it may remain there as a witness against you.

JOS 3:3 and they commanded the people, saying, “When you see the ark of the covenant of the \Lord\ your God with the Levitical priests carrying it, then you shall set out from your place and go after it. JOS 3:6 And Joshua spoke to the priests, saying, “Take up the ark of the covenant and cross over ahead of the people.” So they took up the ark of the covenant and went ahead of the people. JOS 3:6 And Joshua spoke to the priests, saying, “Take up the ark of the covenant and cross over ahead of the people.” So they took up the ark of the covenant and went ahead of the people. JOS 3:8 “You shall, moreover, command the priests who are carrying the ark of the covenant, saying, ‘When you come to the edge of the waters of the Jordan, you shall stand {still} in the Jordan.’” JOS 3:11 “Behold, the ark of the covenant of the Lord of all the earth is crossing over ahead of you into the Jordan. JOS 3:13 “And it shall come about when the soles of the feet of the priests who carry the ark of the \Lord,\ the Lord of all the earth, shall rest in the waters of the Jordan, the waters of the Jordan shall be cut off, {and} the waters which are flowing down from above shall stand in one heap.” JOS 3:14 So it came about when the people set out from their tents to cross the Jordan with the priests carrying the ark of the covenant before the people, JOS 3:15 and when those who carried the ark came into the Jordan, and the feet of the priests carrying the ark were dipped in the edge of the water (for the Jordan overflows all its banks all the days of harvest), JOS 3:17 And the priests who carried the ark of the covenant of the \Lord\ stood firm on dry ground in the middle of the Jordan while all Israel crossed on dry ground, until all the nation had finished crossing the Jordan. JOS 4:5 and Joshua said to them, “Cross again to the ark of the \Lord\ your God into the middle of the Jordan, and each of you take up a stone on his shoulder, according to the number of the tribes of the sons of Israel. JOS 4:7 then you shall say to them, ‘Because the waters of the Jordan were cut off before the ark of the covenant of the \Lord;\ when it crossed the Jordan, the waters of the Jordan

were cut off.’ So these stones shall become a memorial to the sons of Israel forever. “

JOS 4:9 Then Joshua set up twelve stones in the middle of the Jordan at the place where the feet of the priests who carried the ark of the covenant were standing, and they are there to this day. JOS 4:10 For the priests who carried the ark were standing in the middle of the Jordan until everything was completed that the \Lord\ had commanded Joshua to speak to the people, according to all that Moses had commanded Joshua. And the people hurried and crossed; JOS 4:11 and it came about when all the people had finished crossing, that the ark of the \Lord\ and the priests crossed before the people. JOS 4:16 “Command the priests who carry the ark of the testimony that they come up from the Jordan.” JOS 4:18 And it came about when the priests who carried the ark of the covenant of the \Lord\ had come up from the middle of the Jordan, and the soles of the priests’ feet were lifted up to the dry ground, that the waters of the Jordan returned to their place, and went over all its banks as before. JOS 6:4 “Also seven priests shall carry seven trumpets of rams’ horns before the ark; then on the seventh day you shall march around the city seven times, and the priests shall blow the trumpets. JOS 6:6 So Joshua the son of Nun called the priests and said to them, “Take up the ark of the covenant, and let seven priests carry seven trumpets of rams’ horns before the ark of the \Lord.\” JOS 6:7 Then he said to the people, “Go forward, and march around the city, and let the armed men go on before the ark of the \Lord.\” JOS 6:8 And it was {so,} that when Joshua had spoken to the people, the seven priests carrying the seven trumpets of rams’ horns before the \ Lord \went forward and blew the trumpets; and the ark of the covenant of the\ Lord \followed them. JOS 6:9 And the armed men went before the priests who blew the trumpets, and the rear guard came after the ark, while they continued to blow the trumpets.

JOS 6:11 So he had the ark of the \Lord\ taken around the city, circling {it} once; then they came into the camp and spent the night in the camp. JOS 6:12 Now Joshua rose early in the morning, and the priests took up the ark of the \Lord.\ JOS 6:13 And the seven priests carrying the seven trumpets of rams’ horns before the ark of the \Lord\ went on continually, and blew the trumpets; and the armed men went before them, and the rear guard came after the ark of the \Lord,\ while they continued to blow the trumpets. JOS 7:6 Then Joshua tore his clothes and fell to the earth on his face before the ark of the \Lord\ until the evening, {both} he and the elders of Israel; and they put dust on their heads.

JDG 20:27 And the sons of Israel inquired of the \Lord\ (for the ark of the covenant of God {was} there in those days,

1SA 3:3 and the lamp of God had not yet gone out, and Samuel was lying down in the temple of the \Lord\ where the ark of God {was,} 1SA 4:3 When the people came into the camp, the elders of Israel said, “Why has the \Lord\ defeated us today before the Philistines? Let us take to ourselves from Shiloh the ark of the covenant of the \Lord,\ that it may come among us and deliver us from the power of our enemies.” 1SA 4:4 So the people sent to Shiloh, and from there they carried the ark of the covenant of the \Lord\ of hosts who sits {above} the cherubim; and the two sons of Eli, Hophni and Phinehas, {were} there with the ark of the covenant of God. 1SA 4:5 And it happened as the ark of the covenant of the \Lord\ came into the camp, that all Israel shouted with a great shout, so that the earth resounded. 1SA 4:6 And when the Philistines heard the noise of the shout, they said, “What {does} the noise of this great shout in the camp of the Hebrews {mean?}” Then they understood that the ark of the \Lord\ had come into the camp. 1SA 4:11 And the ark of God was taken; and the two sons of Eli, Hophni and Phinehas, died.

1SA 4:13 When he came, behold, Eli was sitting on {his} seat by the road eagerly watching, because his heart was trembling for the ark of God. So the man came to tell {it} in the city, and all the city cried out. 1SA 4:17 Then the one who brought the news answered and said, “Israel has fled before the Philistines and there has also been a great slaughter among the people, and your two sons also, Hophni and Phinehas, are dead, and the ark of God has been taken.”

1SA 4:18 And it came about when he mentioned the ark of God that Eli fell off the seat backward beside the gate, and his neck was broken and he died, for he was old and heavy. Thus he judged Israel forty years. 1SA 4:19 Now his daughter-in-law, Phinehas’ wife, was pregnant and about to give birth; and when she heard the news that the ark of God was taken and that her father-in-law and her husband had died, she kneeled down and gave birth, for her pains came upon her. 1SA 4:21 And she called the boy Ichabod, saying, “The glory has departed from Israel,” because the ark of God was taken and because of her father-in-law and her husband. 1SA 4:22 And she said, “The glory has departed from Israel, for the ark of God was taken.” 1SA 5:1 Now the Philistines took the ark of God and brought it from Ebenezer to Ashdod. 1SA 5:2 Then the Philistines took the ark of God and brought it to the house of Dagon, and set it by Dagon. 1SA 5:3 When the Ashdodites arose early the next morning, behold, Dagon had fallen on his face to the ground before the ark of the \Lord.\ So they took Dagon and set him in his place again. 1SA 5:4 But when they arose early the next morning, behold, Dagon had fallen on his face to the ground before the ark of the \Lord.\ And the head of Dagon and both the palms of his hands {were} cut off on the threshold; only the trunk of Dagon was left to him.

1SA 5:7 When the men of Ashdod saw that it was so, they said, “The ark of the God of Israel must not remain with us, for His hand is severe on us and on Dagon our god.” 1SA 5:8 So they sent and gathered all the lords of the Philistines to them and said, “What shall we do with the ark of the God of Israel?” And they said, “Let the ark of the God of Israel be brought around to Gath.” And they brought the ark of the God of Israel {around.} 1SA 5:10 So they sent the ark of God to Ekron. And it happened as the ark of God came to Ekron that the Ekronites cried out, saying, “They have brought the ark of the God of Israel around to us, to kill us and our people.” 1SA 5:11 They sent therefore and gathered all the lords of the Philistines and said, “Send away the ark of the God of Israel, and let it return to its own place, that it may not kill us and our people.” For there was a deadly confusion throughout the city; the hand of God was very heavy there. 1SA 6:1 Now the ark of the \Lord\ had been in the country of the Philistines seven months. 1SA 6:2 And the Philistines called for the priests and the diviners, saying, “ What shall we do with the ark of the \Lord\? Tell us how we shall send it to its place. “ 1SA 6:3 And they said, “If you send away the ark of the God of Israel, do not send it empty; but you shall surely return to Him a guilt offering. Then you shall be healed and it shall be known to you why His hand is not removed from you.” 1SA 6:8 “And take the ark of the \Lord\ and place it on the cart; and put the articles of gold which you return to Him as a guilt offering in a box by its side. Then send it away that it may go. 1SA 6:11 And they put the ark of the \Lord\ on the cart, and the box with the golden mice and the likenesses of their tumors. 1SA 6:13 Now {the people of} Beth-shemesh were reaping their wheat harvest in the valley, and they raised their eyes and saw the ark and were glad to see {it.}

1SA 6:15 And the Levites took down the ark of the \Lord\ and the box that was with it, in which were the articles of gold, and put them on the large stone; and the men of Beth-shemesh offered burnt offerings and sacrificed sacrifices that day to the \Lord.\ 1SA 6:18 and the golden mice, {according} to the number of all the cities of the Philistines belonging to the five lords, both of fortified cities and of country villages. The large stone on which they set the ark of the \Lord\ {is a witness} to this day in the field of Joshua the Beth-shemite. 1SA 6:19 And He struck down some of the men of Beth-shemesh because they had looked into the ark of the \Lord.\ He struck down of all the people, 50,070 men, and the people mourned because the \Lord\ had struck the people with a great slaughter. 1SA 6:21 So they sent messengers to the inhabitants of Kiriath-jearim, saying, “The Philistines have brought back the ark of the \Lord\; come down and take it up to you.” 1SA 7:1 And the men of Kiriath-jearim came and took the ark of the \Lord\ and brought it into the house of Abinadab on the hill, and consecrated Eleazar his son to keep the ark of the \Lord.\ 1SA 7:2 And it came about from the day that the ark remained at Kiriath-jearim that the time was long, for it was twenty years; and all the house of Israel lamented after the \Lord.\ 1SA 14:18 Then Saul said to Ahijah, “Bring the ark of God here.” For the ark of God was at that time with the sons of Israel. 2SA 6:2 And David arose and went with all the people who were with him to Baale-judah, to bring up from there the ark of God which is called by the Name, the very name of the \Lord\ of hosts who is enthroned { above} the cherubim. 2SA 6:3 And they placed the ark of God on a new cart that they might bring it from the house of Abinadab which was on the hill; and Uzzah and Ahio, the sons of Abinadab, were leading the new cart.

2SA 6:4 So they brought it with the ark of God from the house of Abinadab, which was on the hill; and Ahio was walking ahead of the ark. 2SA 6:6 But when they came to the threshing floor of Nacon, Uzzah reached out toward the ark of God and took hold of it, for the oxen nearly upset {it.} 2SA 6:7 And the anger of the \Lord\ burned against Uzzah, and God struck him down there for his irreverence; and he died there by the ark of God. 2SA 6:9 So David was afraid of the \Lord\ that day; and he said, “How can the ark of the \Lord\ come to me?” 2SA 6:10 And David was unwilling to move the ark of the \Lord\ into the city of David with him; but David took it aside to the house of Obed-edom the Gittite. 2SA 6:11 Thus the ark of the \Lord\ remained in the house of Obed-edom the Gittite three months, and the \Lord\ blessed Obed-edom and all his household. 2SA 6:12 Now it was told King David, saying, “The \Lord\ has blessed the house of Obed-edom and all that belongs to him, on account of the ark of God.” And David went and brought up the ark of God from the house of Obed-edom into the city of David with gladness. 2SA 6:13 And so it was, that when the bearers of the ark of the \Lord\ had gone six paces, he sacrificed an ox and a fatling. 2SA 6:15 So David and all the house of Israel were bringing up the ark of the \Lord\ with shouting and the sound of the trumpet. 2SA 6:16 Then it happened {as} the ark of the \Lord\ came into the city of David that Michal the daughter of Saul looked out of the window and saw King David leaping and dancing before the \Lord;\ and she despised him in her heart. 2SA 6:17 So they brought in the ark of the \Lord\ and set it in its place inside the tent which David had pitched for it; and David offered burnt offerings and peace offerings before the \Lord.\ 2SA 7:2 that the king said to Nathan the prophet, “See now, I dwell in a house of cedar, but the ark of God dwells within tent curtains.”

2SA 11:11 And Uriah said to David, “The ark and Israel and Judah are staying in temporary shelters, and my lord Joab and the servants of my lord are camping in the open field. Shall I then go to my house to eat and to drink and to lie with my wife? By your life and the life of your soul, I will not do this thing.”

2SA 15:24 Now behold, Zadok also {came,} and all the Levites with him carrying the ark of the covenant of God. And they set down the ark of God, and Abiathar came up until all the people had finished passing from the city. 2SA 15:25 And the king said to Zadok, “Return the ark of God to the city. If I find favor in the sight of the \Lord,\ then He will bring me back again, and show me both it and His habitation. 2SA 15:29 Therefore Zadok and Abiathar returned the ark of God to Jerusalem and remained there.

1KI 2:26 Then to Abiathar the priest the king said, “Go to Anathoth to your own field, for you deserve to die; but I will not put you to death at this time, because you carried the ark of the Lord \God\ before my father David, and because you were afflicted in everything with which my father was afflicted.” 1KI 3:15 Then Solomon awoke, and behold, it was a dream. And he came to Jerusalem and stood before the ark of the covenant of the Lord, and offered burnt offerings and made peace offerings, and made a feast for all his servants. 1KI 6:19 Then he prepared an inner sanctuary within the house in order to place there the ark of the covenant of the \Lord.\ 1KI 8:1 Then Solomon assembled the elders of Israel and all the heads of the tribes, the leaders of the fathers’ {households} of the sons of Israel, to King Solomon in Jerusalem, to bring up the ark of the covenant of the \Lord\ from the city of David, which is Zion. 1KI 8:3 Then all the elders of Israel came, and the priests took up the ark. 1KI 8:4 And they brought up the ark of the \Lord\ and the tent of meeting and all the holy utensils, which were in the tent, and the priests and the Levites brought them up.

1KI 8:5 And King Solomon and all the congregation of Israel, who were assembled to him, were with him before the ark, sacrificing so many sheep and oxen they could not be counted or numbered. 1KI 8:6 Then the priests brought the ark of the covenant of the \Lord\ to its place, into the inner sanctuary of the house, to the most holy place, under the wings of the cherubim. 1KI 8:7 For the cherubim spread {their} wings over the place of the ark, and the cherubim made a covering over the ark and its poles from above. 1KI 8:9 There was nothing in the ark except the two tablets of stone which Moses put there at Horeb, where the \Lord\ made a covenant with the sons of Israel, when they came out of the land of Egypt. 1KI 8:21 “And there I have set a place for the ark, in which is the covenant of the Lord, which He made with our fathers when He brought them from the land of Egypt.”

1CH 6:31 Now these are those whom David appointed over the service of song in the house of the \Lord,\ after the ark rested {there.} 1CH 13:3 and let us bring back the ark of our God to us, for we did not seek it in the days of Saul. “ 1CH 13:5 So David assembled all Israel together, from the Shihor of Egypt even to the entrance of Hamath, to bring the ark of God from Kiriath-jearim. 1CH 13:6 And David and all Israel went up to Baalah, {that is,} to Kiriath-jearim, which belongs to Judah, to bring up from there the ark of God, the \Lord\ who is enthroned {above} the cherubim, where His name is called. 1CH 13:7 And they carried the ark of God on a new cart from the house of Abinadab, and Uzza and Ahio drove the cart. 1CH 13:9 When they came to the threshing floor of Chidon, Uzza put out his hand to hold the ark, because the oxen nearly upset {it.} 1CH 13:10 And the anger of the \Lord\ burned against Uzza, so He struck him down because he put out his hand to the ark; and he died there before God. 1CH 13:12 And David was afraid of God that day, saying, “How can I bring the ark of God {home} to me?”

1CH 13:13 So David did not take the ark with him to the city of David, but took it aside to the house of Obed-edom the Gittite. 1CH 13:14 Thus the ark of God remained with the family of Obed-edom in his house three months; and the \Lord\ blessed the family of Obed-edom with all that he had. 1CH 15:1 Now {David} built houses for himself in the city of David; and he prepared a place for the ark of God, and pitched a tent for it. 1CH 15:2 Then David said, “No one is to carry the ark of God but the Levites; for the \Lord\ chose them to carry the ark of God, and to minister to Him forever.” 1CH 15:3 And David assembled all Israel at Jerusalem, to bring up the ark of the \Lord\ to its place, which he had prepared for it. 1CH 15:12 and said to them, “You are the heads of the fathers’ {households} of the Levites; consecrate yourselves both you and your relatives, that you may bring up the ark of the \Lord\ God of Israel, to {the place} that I have prepared for it. 1CH 15:14 So the priests and the Levites consecrated themselves to bring up the ark of the \Lord\ God of Israel. 1CH 15:15 And the sons of the Levites carried the ark of God on their shoulders, with the poles thereon as Moses had commanded according to the word of the \Lord.\ 1CH 15:23 And Berechiah and Elkanah were gatekeepers for the ark. 1CH 15:24 And Shebaniah, Joshaphat, Nethanel, Amasai, Zechariah, Benaiah, and Eliezer, the priests, blew the trumpets before the ark of God. Obed-edom and Jehiah also {were} gatekeepers for the ark. 1CH 15:25 So {it was} David, with the elders of Israel and the captains over thousands, who went to bring up the ark of the covenant of the \Lord\ from the house of Obed-edom with joy. 1CH 15:26 And it came about because God was helping the Levites who were carrying the ark of the covenant of the \Lord\, that they sacrificed seven bulls and seven rams.

1CH 15:27 Now David was clothed with a robe of fine linen with all the Levites who were carrying the ark, and the singers and Chenaniah the leader of the singing {with} the singers. David also wore an ephod of linen. 1CH 15:28 Thus all Israel brought up the ark of the covenant of the \Lord\ with shouting, and with sound of the horn, with trumpets, with loud-sounding cymbals, with harps and lyres. 1CH 15:29 And it happened when the ark of the covenant of the \Lord\ came to the city of David, that Michal the daughter of Saul looked out of the window, and saw King David leaping and making merry; and she despised him in her heart. 1CH 16:1 And they brought in the ark of God and placed it inside the tent which David had pitched for it, and they offered burnt offerings and peace offerings before God. 1CH 16:4 And he appointed some of the Levites {as} ministers before the ark of the \Lord\, even to celebrate and to thank and praise the \Lord\ God of Israel: 1CH 16:6 and Benaiah and Jahaziel the priests {blew} trumpets continually before the ark of the covenant of God. 1CH 16:37 So he left Asaph and his relatives there before the ark of the covenant of the \Lord,\ to minister before the ark continually, as every day’s work required; 1CH 17:1 And it came about, when David dwelt in his house, that David said to Nathan the prophet, “Behold, I am dwelling in a house of cedar, but the ark of the covenant of the \Lord\ is under curtains.” 1CH 22:19 “Now set your heart and your soul to seek the \Lord\ your God; arise, therefore, and build the sanctuary of the \Lord\ God, so that you may bring the ark of the covenant of the \Lord,\ and the holy vessels of God into the house that is to be built for the name of the \Lord.\” 1CH 28:2 Then King David rose to his feet and said, “Listen to me, my brethren and my people; I {had} intended to build a permanent home for the ark of the covenant of the \Lord\ and for the footstool of our God. So I had made preparations to build {it.}

1CH 28:18 and for the altar of incense refined gold by weight; and gold for the model of the chariot, {even} the cherubim, that spread out {their wings,} and covered the ark of the covenant of the \Lord.\ 2CH 1:4 However, David had brought up the ark of God from Kiriath-jearim to the place he had prepared for it; for he had pitched a tent for it in Jerusalem. 2CH 5:2 Then Solomon assembled to Jerusalem the elders of Israel and all the heads of the tribes, the leaders of the fathers’ {households} of the sons of Israel, to bring up the ark of the covenant of the \Lord\ out of the city of David, which is Zion. 2CH 5:4 Then all the elders of Israel came, and the Levites took up the ark. 2CH 5:5 And they brought up the ark and the tent of meeting and all the holy utensils which {were} in the tent; the Levitical priests brought them up. 2CH 5:6 And King Solomon and all the congregation of Israel who were assembled with him before the ark were sacrificing so many sheep and oxen, that they could not be counted or numbered. 2CH 5:7 Then the priests brought the ark of the covenant of the \Lord\ to its place, into the inner sanctuary of the house, to the holy of holies, under the wings of the cherubim. 2CH 5:8 For the cherubim spread their wings over the place of the ark, so that the cherubim made a covering over the ark and its poles. 2CH 5:9 And the poles were so long that the ends of the poles of the ark could be seen in front of the inner sanctuary, but they could not be seen outside; and they are there to this day. 2CH 5:10 There was nothing in the ark except the two tablets which Moses put {there} at Horeb, where the \Lord\ made a covenant with the sons of Israel, when they came out of Egypt. 2CH 6:11 “And there I have set the ark, in which is the covenant of the \Lord\, which He made with the sons of Israel.”

2CH 6:41 “Now therefore arise, O \Lord\ God, to Thy resting place, Thou and the ark of Thy might; let Thy priests, O \Lord\ God, be clothed with salvation, and let Thy godly ones rejoice in what is good. 2CH 8:11 Then Solomon brought Pharaoh’s daughter up from the city of David to the house which he had built for her; for he said, “My wife shall not dwell in the house of David king of Israel, because the places are holy where the ark of the \Lord\ has entered.” 2CH 35:3 He also said to the Levites who taught all Israel {and} who were holy to the \Lord,\ “Put the holy ark in the house which Solomon the son of David king of Israel built; it will be a burden on {your} shoulders no longer. Now serve the \Lord\ your God and His people Israel.
