Holy relic or religious myth? Is the truth about the Ark of the Covenant being covered up by the Vatican…?

Moses And The Ten Commandments

The Old Testament tells us that Moses received instruction from God when he was leading the Israelites out of Egypt to the Promised Land.

Somewhere on the way, it says, in the stretch of no man’s land known as the Sinai, God gave Moses the Ten Commandments, which he proceeded to write down on two stone tablets and place in a receptacle known as the Ark of the Covenant.

Though today this holy artefact seems lost to posterity, its legend undoubtedly thrives, being the subject of a string of best-selling books and Hollywood movies.

But the question is: where is the Ark of the Covenant today?

Has it simply been lost to history? Or is its whereabouts being covered up by some secretive masonic cabal in the bowels of Vatican City?

Be good to hear your thoughts, and to see your evidence…
