• 00:03 David Hart: Welcome to "Our Jewish Roots" with insightful
• 00:06 Bible teaching by Dr. Jeffrey Seif.
• 00:08 This week we conclude our documentary mini-series,
• 00:11 "Jehovah's Treasure: The Quest for the Ark of the Covenant
• 00:15 and Temple Treasure."
• 00:17 narrator: In a remote tunnel, deep within the Judean desert,
• 00:22 an unsolved mystery of a priceless treasure.
• 00:28 It started with Abraham, was assembled by Moses, enshrined by
• 00:37 King Solomon.
• 00:40 Its fame would summon kings and beckon pharaohs.
• 00:44 Its glory would ravage foreign gods.
• 00:50 What was the source of this might?
• 00:54 Is history about to unleash its desert secrets?

• 01:04 narrator: The quest for the temple treasures and the ark
• 01:07 of the covenant: "Jehovah's Treasure."

• 01:17 David: We are so glad you've joined us today.
• 01:19 I am David Hart.
• 01:20 Kirsten Hart: I'm Kirsten Hart.
• 01:22 Jeffrey Seif: I am Jeffrey Seif, and we are going on a journey.
• 01:26 Yes, gang?
• 01:27 Kirsten: An adventure, I love adventures.
• 01:30 So, let's look at the path the ark has taken.
• 01:33 It was in the Sinai wilderness, crossed over into Canaan.
• 01:36 Philistines took it and now, it's a coffee table in
• 01:41 someone's home?
• 01:44 Jeffrey: Well, we're on the search, you know, like
• 01:47 Indiana Jones.
• 01:49 But the real deal, we're after it and we're on the trail.
• 01:52 We'll see where it leads.
• 01:54 Kirsten: It's fascinating and wonderful at the same time.
• 01:57 David: Right now, it's time to go to Israel as we move closer
• 01:59 to the end of our story about Jehovah's treasure.
• 02:04 narrator: In the journey from the Sinai to Jerusalem, the ark
• 02:07 of the covenant has been the source of life and death now for
• 02:10 nearly 450 years.
• 02:15 Through deserts and rivers, over mountains and canyons, into the
• 02:23 very temple of a foreign god.
• 02:28 David Dolan: King David has a vision.
• 02:30 He wants to build a permanent house for the Lord, just north
• 02:33 of his palace on Mount Moriah.
• 02:35 After all, it's here that Abraham offered up his son Isaac
• 02:38 and where Jehovah renewed his covenant with Abraham to bless
• 02:42 his seed for ever.
• 02:44 What more fitting place could there be to build a house of
• 02:46 rest for the ark of the covenant?
• 02:49 David would proceed with his plans but the actual
• 02:51 construction of the temple would be left to his son and Israel's
• 02:54 next king, Solomon.
• 02:57 narrator: King Solomon proceeds with his mission to construct a
• 03:01 temple worthy of his father's vision.
• 03:05 He will use 3300 foremen and 80,000 stonecutters.
• 03:10 Hewn of local limestone, the magnificent structure will be
• 03:15 fashioned after the pattern of Moses' tabernacle, its inner
• 03:19 walls covered with pure gold.
• 03:21 The golden menorah, table of showbread, and altar of incense
• 03:26 will continue to be the focal point in the area called the
• 03:29 Holy Place, as will the smaller gold and silver vessels used in
• 03:34 the service of these artifacts.
• 03:37 Even more gold and silver will be stored in the adjacent
• 03:40 temple treasury.
• 03:42 And just as in the tabernacle, the ark of the covenant will be
• 03:45 placed in a separate golden room at the back of the temple called
• 03:48 the Holy of Holies.
• 03:52 Nearly 500 years old, the ark is finally home.
• 04:00 Under King Solomon, Israel becomes one of the richest
• 04:04 nations in the world.
• 04:07 The empire grows and flourishes as it never has before, but this
• 04:10 golden age will be short-lived.
• 04:14 The death of King Solomon in 926 BC brings about troubled times.
• 04:18 The kingdom is divided, wars are fought as ruthless kings come
• 04:24 and go.
• 04:26 Foreign kingdoms march toward Jerusalem, burning and pillaging
• 04:29 as they ultimately enter the gates of the holy city.
• 04:36 It's at some point during this turbulent period that the ark of
• 04:40 the covenant disappears from the pages of the Bible.
• 04:54 In 586 BC, Jerusalem and the temple are completely destroyed
• 04:59 by the armies of King Nebuchadnezzar.
• 05:02 The greatest landmark of Abraham's seed becomes
• 05:04 smoldering cinders.
• 05:07 Now, Babylon's walls, 300 feet in height, encircled the exiled
• 05:11 children of Israel.
• 05:14 The smaller temple treasures consisting of over 5000 gold and
• 05:18 silver vessels have become the spoils of war.
• 05:23 Forty-eight years pass and then another surprising twist
• 05:28 of fate.
• 05:30 The Babylonians themselves become captive to Cyrus II, king
• 05:34 of the Persian empire.
• 05:36 In this decree, inscribed in cuneiform, Cyrus grants
• 05:40 permission for all exiles in Babylon to return to
• 05:43 their homeland.
• 05:45 The Israelites are free to leave.
• 05:47 They are given their temple treasures and are actually
• 05:50 encouraged to rebuild their house of God in Jerusalem.
• 05:55 David: The return will come in stages.
• 05:58 The first and largest group is led by Zerubbabel who becomes
• 06:01 the governor of this province.
• 06:03 He lays the foundation for a rather modest temple which pales
• 06:06 in comparison to Solomon's.
• 06:08 But it will eventually serve as a home for the very same looted
• 06:11 gold and silver vessels that have been taken to Babylon.
• 06:15 narrator: While the Bible speaks of the temple treasures being
• 06:19 restored to their rightful place on the Temple Mount, it says
• 06:22 nothing about the ark.
• 06:25 As for the covenant, it will remain in effect as reflected in
• 06:28 the prayers of confession and rededication.
• 06:32 Jeffrey: At the end of the day, God wants to have a relationship
• 06:37 with me and you.
• 06:39 There's the term "covenant," old covenant, new covenant.
• 06:43 It speaks of relationship.
• 06:45 And the literature is rich with examples of him attesting
• 06:49 to that.
• 06:51 It's a real place where the story took place and now we take
• 06:53 you to that place as we carry on in the journey in search of
• 06:57 Jehovah's treasure.
• 07:05 ♪♪♪
• 07:07 Ian Stern: Five hundred years have elapsed from the time
• 07:08 of Zerubbabel to the time of King Herod.
• 07:11 King Herod ruled from 37 to 4 BCE.
• 07:16 And he built, in his period of time, one of the most
• 07:18 magnificent structures in the world.
• 07:21 He actually rebuilds the second temple.
• 07:24 Right next to me over here are the walls, the retaining walls,
• 07:26 of that temple, and they bear the characteristics of Herodian
• 07:30 monumental buildings, that is to say they have margins.
• 07:33 There's dry masonry, and they're all recessed one stone from
• 07:38 the other.
• 07:40 narrator: The immense size of these stones is better
• 07:43 appreciated underground, along the base of the Western Wall.
• 07:46 Chief archeologist of Jerusalem, John Zeligman.
• 07:50 John Zeligman: This huge stone beside me is what's called the
• 07:52 master course of the Temple Mount.
• 07:54 It's the stone that provides the stability, the structural
• 07:56 stability, to the Temple Mount.
• 07:58 Each huge stone is about 35 feet by about 9 feet in height.
• 08:02 Actually, the inside depth we don't quite know but this is the
• 08:05 largest stone we have in the Temple Mount and possibly one of
• 08:07 the largest stone that exists in any ancient site in the world.
• 08:10 And, of course, how it's moved to the site is a real conundrum
• 08:14 for archeologists.
• 08:18 narrator: It was said of King Herod's temple: "He who has not
• 08:21 seen the Temple of Herod has not seen a beautiful building.
• 08:25 He who has not seen Jerusalem in its glory has not seen a
• 08:29 beautiful city."
• 08:33 This is the temple of Jesus' time.
• 08:36 As in Solomon's temple, the golden artifacts and vessels
• 08:38 will serve their place before the Levitical priests, but the
• 08:42 Holy of Holies will be empty.
• 08:46 The ark has disappeared.
• 08:50 Ian: We're standing on the street here that Jesus would
• 08:53 have walked and we're approximately 100 yards away
• 08:55 from where the temple once stood.
• 08:57 The shops over here to my left were the shops that thousands of
• 08:59 pilgrims would have visited on the three times a year that they
• 09:03 made pilgrimage into Jerusalem on Passover, on Shavuot, and
• 09:06 on Sukkot.
• 09:08 These stones once stood as high as the top of those trees over
• 09:11 there and in the year 70 the Roman legions came, destroyed
• 09:14 the temple, and threw these stones down onto the pavement in
• 09:17 front of us.
• 09:19 Here they stand as testimony to that Roman destruction in the
• 09:20 year 70.
• 09:23 narrator: Today, nearly 2000 years after the Romans plundered
• 09:26 the walls of Jerusalem, a remnant of King Herod's splendid
• 09:29 temple still remains.
• 09:32 This part of the Western Wall is often referred to as the
• 09:34 Wailing Wall.
• 09:36 Tears are shed here but there are shouts of joy as well.
• 09:40 At the age of 13, every Jewish boy, no matter where he lives in
• 09:44 the world, is bar mitzvah'd and if the family can observe this
• 09:47 festive occasion here at the Wall, all the better.
• 09:51 On this day, a boy becomes a son of the covenant.
• 09:56 David: Our story of the ark of the covenant becomes even more
• 10:00 intriguing when we next consider its mysterious whereabouts.
• 10:04 If you'll search the Internet, you'll find there are over
• 10:07 2 1/ 2 million items to be found related to the ark,
• 10:10 nearly all of them having to do with its disappearance.
• 10:14 To review, we know that it was first placed into Solomon's
• 10:17 Temple in 950 BC.
• 10:20 It remains there for some 365 years before that temple is
• 10:23 destroyed and plundered by the Babylonians in 586 BC.
• 10:28 There's little reference made to the ark during this period.
• 10:32 It's during the reign of King Josiah in 622 BC that we read
• 10:36 about it for the last time.
• 10:38 So what happened to this most valuable treasure in history?
• 10:42 Let's look at some of the theories.
• 10:47 narrator: Shortly after King Solomon's death, Jerusalem is
• 10:49 besieged by the Egyptian pharaoh, Shishak, and he took
• 10:54 away the treasures of the house of the Lord, and the treasures
• 10:58 of the king's house.
• 11:00 No one is sure what these temple treasures consisted of, although
• 11:04 Hollywood moguls have garnered fortunes of their own based on
• 11:07 the notion that the treasures included the ark of
• 11:09 the covenant.
• 11:14 In the year 1099, the crusaders marched into Jerusalem,
• 11:19 converting the Islamic Dome of the Rock into a cathedral that
• 11:24 would serve as their headquarters within the
• 11:27 Holy Land.
• 11:29 Some believe that the Knights Templar excavated underground
• 11:32 chambers within the Temple Mount in search of the ark and the
• 11:36 temple treasures.
• 11:37 This theory has the Knights finding the ark and the
• 11:40 treasures, then whisking them away to southern France.
• 11:43 One of the more popular theories suggest that King Solomon had a
• 11:47 son by the visiting Ethiopian queen of Sheba.
• 11:50 At the age of 19, this son, Menelik, becomes the king of
• 11:54 Sheba and has the ark removed from Solomon's Temple, taking it
• 11:58 to Ethiopia.
• 12:00 According to the residents of Aksum, Ethiopia, the ark
• 12:04 presently resides in a local church and is overseen by a
• 12:08 caretaker priest who guards it 24 hours a day.
• 12:15 In an amazing understatement printed in his own publication,
• 12:20 the late American, Ron Wyatt claimed to have found the ark
• 12:24 in 1982.
• 12:26 He says he saw it here in what he calls Jeremiah's grotto which
• 12:31 happens to be below the site that some revere as Golgotha or
• 12:34 Mount Calvary.
• 12:37 Wyatt's excavation also happens to rest within the boundaries of
• 12:40 Jerusalem's Garden Tomb.
• 12:43 Curator of the Garden Tomb, Victor Jack.
• 12:47 Victor Jack: Well, right where I'm sitting is where Ron dug his
• 12:50 hole to go down and excavate under this rock.
• 12:53 And this wall wasn't here.
• 12:56 That's all been sort of landscaped since, but he dug
• 12:58 here on two or three occasions and went down under the rock.
• 13:02 And I was here, working as a chaplain when he was digging.
• 13:06 narrator: Wyatt claims to have found other temple treasures as
• 13:10 well, such as the altar of incense and the table
• 13:13 of showbread.
• 13:15 But the reports fan a growing fire, fears of engulfing the
• 13:18 Middle East in a potential holy war, the work has ceased, the
• 13:22 excavation covered with dirt.

• 14:11 Now it's time to return to "Jehovah's Treasure," as we look
• 14:14 closer at Mount Moriah in Jerusalem to the most contested
• 14:18 site in one of the most contested cities in the world:
• 14:22 the Temple Mount.
• 14:24 narrator: This recent aerial image of the Temple Mount was
• 14:27 captured using state of the art thermal imaging.
• 14:30 It is the only known documentation of what appears to
• 14:32 be a sub-surface passageway.
• 14:35 Some archeologists believe it functioned as a drain and was
• 14:38 used by the priest in the service of the temple.
• 14:42 male: Tunnels, drains, gateways, even meeting halls, they all
• 14:45 exist under the Temple Mount, and all very convenient places,
• 14:51 it would seem, to hide temple treasures.
• 14:55 We know that during the period of Solomon's Temple there were
• 14:57 a number of ruthless kings who desecrated the holy site.
• 15:01 It seems likely that the ark and the temple artifacts would have
• 15:04 been hidden away by the temple priest at such times
• 15:07 to protect them.
• 15:09 narrator: Archeologist Avner Goren is also familiar
• 15:12 with the gates and tunnels under the Temple Mount.
• 15:15 Avner Goren: There were a few gates that allow people to get
• 15:18 into the Temple Mount courtyard, and one of the gates is
• 15:21 just here.
• 15:23 Matter of fact, one of the closest places that one would be
• 15:25 able to get to the Holy of Holies was here.
• 15:28 narrator: This gate, now closed with concrete, led directly to
• 15:32 the temple.
• 15:34 In 1981, Rabbi Yehuda Getz, chief rabbi of the Western Wall,
• 15:40 happened upon this site and in a secret mission of his own, set
• 15:44 about to find the lost ark of the covenant.
• 15:50 Avner: He believed that if the ark of the covenant is buried
• 15:54 here, hidden here, it should be as close as possible to the
• 15:59 Holiest Place, just below the place where the ark was during
• 16:02 the time of the temple.
• 16:04 So if so, he got very close to the place he believed the ark
• 16:09 should be in.
• 16:12 narrator: As Rabbi Getz inched ever closer to the Holy of
• 16:15 Holies, he could contain his excitement no longer.
• 16:20 He would call his good friend and confidant, Gershon Salomon.
• 16:24 Gershon Salomon: It was one of the nights that he called me
• 16:28 after midnight and told me, "Gershon, your dream is going to
• 16:32 come to pass.
• 16:35 Come immediately.
• 16:37 We've discovered the tunnel which will lead us to the
• 16:41 location of the ark of covenant."
• 16:45 And I came after midnight, you know, I had no time even to put
• 16:49 my shoes on myself.
• 16:52 I came to the place and what I saw in my eyes was
• 16:56 very exciting.
• 16:58 It was dark and it was lighted by electric.
• 17:04 And it looked--the stones looked like they are painted with gold,
• 17:09 you know, when the light fall on it.
• 17:12 And despite of the garbage and the dirt and the water, the
• 17:17 unclean water which was there, we could feel the holiness of
• 17:22 the place.
• 17:26 I stood there with tears in my eyes.
• 17:31 I had tears of joy, of excitement.
• 17:35 narrator: The tears would soon be bittersweet.
• 17:39 Years of secret digging suddenly cease as the news of the find is
• 17:42 leaked to the press.
• 17:44 Jerusalem now stands on the brink of an
• 17:46 archeological firestorm.
• 17:48 Reports say Rabbi Getz was digging in ground held sacred by
• 17:51 Muslims and his actions could conceivably spark further war in
• 17:55 the surrounding region.
• 17:58 Further, Muslims reinforced their contention that the entire
• 18:02 mount is theirs.
• 18:06 They will permit no archeology in the area.
• 18:09 Undaunted, archeologists persevere as best they can.
• 18:16 Archeologist, Gabriel Barkai.
• 18:19 Gabriel Barkai: We have here soil which comes from fills.
• 18:23 Fills included material from all periods of human activity upon
• 18:28 the Temple Mount.
• 18:30 The most striking and most important, of course, are those
• 18:33 from the ancient periods: First Temple period, Second Temple
• 18:37 period, the late Roman period, early Christian period, and the
• 18:42 early Arabic period.
• 18:46 narrator: Archeologists have already uncovered pristine
• 18:48 artifacts revealing the treasures of the Temple Mount.
• 18:52 Barkai's finds become additional pieces to the remarkable puzzle.
• 18:57 Gabriel: As this comes from inside the Temple Mount, we may
• 18:59 even assume that it comes from the temple itself.
• 19:03 female: Altogether, now what you're cleaning are the ribs.
• 19:08 narrator: Then finally, after six years of digging, Oren
• 19:12 Gutfeld's enigma is beginning to unravel.
• 19:15 He has found some more bones in the new tunnel, the date of the
• 19:18 Second Temple period.
• 19:20 These bones are human.
• 19:22 female: Because we don't want to break them.
• 19:24 narrator: Encouraged by the find, Gutfeld calls upon some
• 19:27 specialists from the United States to electronically probe
• 19:31 beyond the visible walls of the tunnel.
• 19:34 This is GPR, Ground Penetrating Radar.
• 19:39 Oren Gutfeld: We're looking for hidden chambers that might be
• 19:41 behind the walls.
• 19:44 In the Pyramids they found with special GPR equipment above the
• 19:47 ceiling of the tunnel a chamber.
• 19:51 So looking forward to see if the GPR team will find something
• 19:54 like that in our tunnel.
• 19:56 narrator: At first, the results are less than promising
• 19:59 and then, on the team's last day, an anomaly appears
• 20:02 below the tunnel's floor.
• 20:06 male: We're just running in time.
• 20:09 Instead of using the wheel, we're just running in time so
• 20:10 it's continuously collecting as it's sitting on the floor.
• 20:13 So we have these strong reads.
• 20:17 male: We're sending a signal down continuously and we get
• 20:19 a strong change in dielectric somewhere around 3 feet,
• 20:24 right in here.
• 20:27 narrator: Strong changes in the scope's reading could very well
• 20:29 mean hidden chambers and hidden chambers, no matter where
• 20:34 they may be found in Israel, could mean hidden treasure.
• 20:39 male: In archeology we always say that only in the last--in
• 20:42 the last moment, the last hour, on the last moment of that hour,
• 20:48 you always discover the things.
• 20:52 It's always worked that way.
• 20:54 It's just the rule.

• 21:31 David Dolan: The elusive ark and temple

• 21:44 Maybe additional Dead Sea scrolls will be found to shed

• 22:31 From age to age, as if breaking all barriers of time and space,

• 24:40 that the Holy Spirit dwells within us.
• 24:43 Even with that said, there are predictions, in biblical
• 24:46 literature, about the physical plant being rebuilt and
• 24:51 things being restored there.
• 24:53 Some could call it a contradiction, but that works
• 24:55 for me 'cause it says it in the literature.
• 24:58 Kirsten: It's still that mystery.
• 25:00 It's still to be solved.
• 25:02 But solved it will be one day when that Third Temple is built.
• 25:04 I believe they'll have it.
• 25:05 Jeffrey: And it looks like we're getting closer there
• 25:07 all the time.
• 25:08 David: Yeah, we're gonna talk more about that in a bit.
• 25:10 Stay with us.
• 25:11 Kirsten: We have a full DVD special all about Jehovah's
• 25:16 treasure that's available to you through our website.
• 25:19 Jeffrey: And it's not fake news, you know?
• 25:21 And it's not a movie.
• 25:23 It's actually going to the places and talking to
• 25:24 experts there.
• 25:26 It's fascinating and it's yours for the asking.
• 25:30 There's a donation to help us do what we do and I wanna thank you
• 25:33 for that.
• 25:38 David: This series has felt like we were literally
• 25:39 in a Hollywood movie.
• 25:41 It's been incredible and we couldn't do it without
• 25:42 our viewers' help.
• 25:44 Jeffrey: Thank you, thank you, thank you.
• 25:46 "Your tax dollars at work," you ever saw that sign where
• 25:48 you're driving down the street?
• 25:50 You're seeing your gift money at work as we bring you
• 25:52 biblical stuff that is really cool.
• 25:54 Kirsten: And what's really cool is this ark still
• 25:57 remains somewhere.
• 25:59 I kind of feel that Israel might have it.
• 26:01 I think they're ready for that Third Temple.
• 26:02 I don't know.
• 26:04 Jeffrey: Interesting times.
• 26:05 Kirsten: It's the big mystery, isn't it?
• 26:07 Where is it?
• 26:09 And those temple treasures.
• 26:10 I mean, we're talking about--a lot about the ark but we're also
• 26:12 talking about all the temple treasures.
• 26:14 Where are they?
• 26:16 And I--we talk about it at home 'cause it's just fascinating
• 26:18 to me.
• 26:19 And I think they're solid gold.
• 26:21 That doesn't just disintegrate.
• 26:22 They're somewhere.
• 26:24 Jeffrey: Well, you have a detective here on the set.
• 26:25 We're gonna find it.
• 26:27 How about that?
• 26:28 Kirsten: Good.
• 26:30 David: It's been a great series.
• 26:31 Thank you for joining us.
• 26:33 We end our program with a song from our founder, Zola Levitt.
• 26:34 Jeffrey: And as you go now, Shaalu shalom Yerushalayim.
• 26:36 Kirsten: Pray for the peace of Jerusalem.
