Painting of the Ark of the Covenant as
Described in the Bible
A Quick Summary
This slideshow covers a very basic introduction to the subject of
the Ark of the Covenant mentioned in the Old Testament. The Ark of the Covenant
was a physical sign that the God of all the earth was in Israel "and let them
make me a sanctuary, that I may dwell in them" (Ex. 25:8). God made a covenant
with Israel and with all mankind that only by the shedding of the blood of
Christ would there be forgiveness of sins. Abraham, the first Hebrew knew this
when God told him to bring his only son Isaac whom he loves to the altar, and
rejoiced to see the day of Christ (John 8:56).
