"But there are other difficulties with
Ark of
Covenant that have to do with
possibility that it could have been part of
treasure of Rome brought by Visigoths to Rennes-le-Château. According to
Old Testament, Exodus,
Ark of
Covenant was constructed soon after
Israelites had escaped across
Red Sea from bondage in Egypt. Modern engineers have been intrigued by
specification of
Ark because, if
directions are followed precisely, one ends up making a fairly powerful electrical condenser. It was a box of very specific dimensions made of acacia wood (an insulator). It was covered, inside and out, with gold (an excellent conductor). If
two surfaces of
gold were separated from each other, then a very powerful condenser of electricity is
result. In
dry air of
Middle East, it would accumulate a very powerful charge. (15)
But
Ark was more than just a condenser, it was a 'spark transmitter' roughly tuned to a specific frequency by
very precise dimensions given to Moses for
basic acacia-wood box. In this matter,
Ark was similar to early 'cavity tubes' in 1930s radar research where
desired radar frequency was obtained by actually machining cavities of various volumes into metal blocks. {So we can see how electricity aided
gold merchants who were plating silver or lead from archaeology, perhaps. We know there are other galvanic and electrical sources for such power as well.} The Ark was a 'cavity' of precise dimensions, and one in a gold-sheathed box.
The Ark also had a top, of
same general construction as
basic box. This lid of
box had golden 'cherubim' at each end {Imagine if they were able to induce separate polar charges in
'high- spin' atomic state per
writings of Gardner from 'science'; into each of these 'cherubim'.} and a 'Mercy Seat.' {Mercy might then be like 'devoted ones' or a form of capital punishment to be used in conjunction with energizing
soul be ritual into
tubes we hear were receptacles for souls and which may tie in with
jade tubes on
head of
Prince of Palenque from
'science' segment.} The Bible doesn't tell" us exactly how these components were arranged, or how they were attached to
Ark's top. It is well to remember that although Moses is supposed to be
author of Exodus, according to Hebrew tradition,
earliest known written account dates from almost one thousand years later {And there is uncertainty about who Moses was and when he was around as we have shown. But, his sister was one of
most adept alchemists, I think.}. Moses might not have described everything about
Ark in
first place, but even if he had, it seems probable that some details would have become fuzzy in
one thousand years of oral transmission before
story was written down.
Without assuming any 'secret' or 'unknown' components at all, but working only with
Ark as described, only two assumptions are necessary in order to construct a fairly powerful spark transmitter. One assumption is that an ancient, pliable insulating material was available so that
parts of
Ark could be attached in ways that both insulated them from, and conducted them to,
basic box condenser-cavity-frequency- modulator in order to produce a 'circuit'. Such an insulating material was widely available to
ancient Israelites and Egyptians--bitumen, tar. {For example Sodom and Gomorrah and what is now Iraq is populated with tar pits. Pitch fires of a continual nature existed in places like
La Brea Tar Pits for eons and would have provided early man with fire, too.} And we don't need to assume that artisans and priests in
ancient Middle East used bitumen to insulate and to seal simple electrical devices.
Wet-cell electric batteries, using acidic citrus juice as an electrolyte, were discovered in a Baghdad museum. (16) They were sealed with bitumen, and
internal electrodes were insulated from each other with bitumen. These primitive batteries have been dated to about A.D. 700. But fundamental electric devices were used much earlier than that. Tiny golden beads from XVIII Dynasty Egypt (c.1550 B.C.) were found to have only a thin coating of gold over some base metal {We showed Ashkelon had a calf of Ba'al with silver plating from Phoenicians and
National Geographic in 'science'. The Phocaeans had mass produced electrum plated coinage first according to Michael Grant, etc., etc.}. The beads are so small, and also without any sort of seam or hammered edge to
gold layer, that
gold could have been applied only by electroplating. (17) Given a citrus-juice battery like those of Baghdad {Where a printed circuit in a museum was thought to be embroidery by archaeologists until a computer expert saw it.}, electroplating of gold would not have been difficult. So we don't have to assume an electrical insulating material, and we don't have to assume basic knowledge of electricity in Middle Eastern antiquity. We know it.
The second assumption is that there were instructions, or a model, indicating what was to be insulated with bitumen, and what was to be solidly attached with
ubiquitous gold. {They had superconductive knowledge according to Gardner and calcium is useful in these regards.}
Let us consider one 'cherub' at one end of
Ark. These 'cherubim' seem to have been
Egyptian idea of a 'griffon'--an animal with claws and long pointed wings {Important in
gargoyle genre of gothic architecture and alchemy.}, a sort of cross between a lion and a hawk. Let us suppose that our cherub at one end of
box had one gold claw connected to
inner sheet of gold on
acacia-wood box, and
other claw attached to
gold sheath on
exterior of
acacia box. Further, suppose that this separation was maintained up to
long wings, which were of gold. Suppose that
wings were hinged or pivoted to be able to 'flap' like a proper cherub. Maybe they were just mounted in a glob of bitumen with bars, wires, or much more flexible leather-sheathed chain-links {Or ultra strong human hair.} of gold maintaining
required connections.
Assembled like this, there would be a very formidable spark between
cherub's pointed gold wings each time they were pushed close together. The Ark would arc--because of
electric charge that had accumulated in
condenser. And it would arc according to a rough frequency dictated by
dimensions of
Ark's basic cavity. Touching
wings at once with bare hands would have resulted in instant death or burn depending on
strength of
charge that had been accumulated. Operating
Ark, or even touching it, would have been a potentially fatal business for anyone not thoroughly initiated into necessary procedures. The Bible mentions at least one instance in which a non-priest fell dead trying to save
Ark--the man grabbed it when it was in danger of falling off a wagon. This was in
early days of Israelite struggles in Canaan.
