The end of the Old Testament period brought a different world to the Jewish people than what they had been used to experiencing. Not the least of these changes involved the loss of their independence and the destruction of their Temple.

Interesting. I suppose it could have been melted down. Particularly if it was taken by someone who was not jewish. They would've been afraid just as the stories show that each time it was taken...it brought bad things to the group that took it.
I thought it was interesting too. I liked this verse at the end of his artical.
An amazing prophetic statement by Jeremiah should be carefully noted:
"And when you have multiplied and increased in the land, in those days, declares the LORD, they shall no more say, 'The ark of the covenant of the LORD.' It shall not come to mind or be remembered or missed; it shall not be made again" (Jer. 3:16).

Philippians 3:20-21 “But our citizenship is in heaven, and from it we await a Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ, who will transform our lowly body to be like his glorious body, by the power that enables him even to subject all things to himself.”
