The Lost Ark Of The Covenant: Solving The 2,500 Year Old Mystery Of The Fabled Biblical Ark

Tudor Parfitt, Professor of Jewish Studies at London's School of Oriental and African Studies and Fellow of the Oxford Centre of Hebrew and Jewish Studies

According to the biblical account, the Ark of the Covenant held the stone tablets that bore the Ten Commandments. It disappeared from the temple in Jerusalem in 586 BC….and was lost, apparently forever. Over the last 2 thousand years, many scholars and treasure hunters have claimed to know where it was hidden. Now, Professor Tudor Parfitt, from London’s School of Oriental and African Studies, believes he has found it.
