For when Moses had spoken every precept to all the people according to the law, he took the blood of calves and of goats, with water, and scarlet wool, and hyssop, and sprinkled both the book, and all the people…” (Hebrews 9:19)
Hebrews 9:19 says that Moses sprinkled blood and water above the book of the law in order to confirm the old covenant at Sinai. This was a type of what Christ did when He confirmed the new covenant, which He did on the cross. So just as Moses sprinkled animal blood, and water above the book of the law in the type, Christ had to sprinkle His blood and water above the tables of the law in the antitype.
In August of 1978, Ron Wyatt was walking along Gordon’s Calvary Escarpment in the Garden Tomb in Jerusalem, talking with a local authority about Roman antiquities. Without warning, Ron’s left hand pointed to a site there and his mouth said, “That’s Jeremiah’s Grotto and the Ark of the Covenant is in there.”
Even though these words had come from his own mouth and his own hand had pointed, he had not consciously said or done these things. The man with him, quite out of character, also reacted strangely. He said, “That’s wonderful! We want you to excavate, and we’ll grant you your permits, put you up in a place to stay and even furnish your meals!” Ron Wyatt knew that this was a supernatural event but he also knew that not all supernatural events originate from God (Revelation 16:14).
So he returned home to the US, and began to research as to whether or not the Ark could be in that area. He discovered that 2Chronicles 35:3 is the last reference to the Ark of the Covenant, and verse 19 tells us that this was in the year 621 BC, just 35 years before the destruction of Jerusalem and the temple by Nebuchadnezzar. It says that the Ark was in the temple at that time. When the Babylonian army besieged Jerusalem, they built a siege wall around the city, not allowing anyone or anything in or out of the city.
Therefore, the Ark of the Covenant most probably remained within the Babylonian siege wall. As it was not captured by Nebuchadnezzar and taken to Babylon, we must assume that it was hidden underground. This matched perfectly with the area that Ron Wyatt had pointed to, it would have been within the Babylonian siege wall, in an underground chamber. Ron Wyatt and his two sons dug several times at that site, uncovering a wealth of information. They began by digging straight down, at the base of a cliff face, a cliff face known to many as Golgotha. In the 1800’s General Gordon recognized that the site matched the biblical description of Calvary, the site of the crucifixion of Christ. The Bible describes a tomb hewn out of rock, in a garden nearby, it was the tomb of a rich man who donated it to Jesus (Matt. 27:57-60). In the vicinity is just that, and the tomb has been hurriedly extended, suggesting that the person that lay in it, was not the person it was designed for.
In fact, General Charles Gordon, the founder of the Garden Tomb said the Ark is hidden there! The Garden Tomb has published a book in 2012 and is selling it now saying the Ark of the Covenant is in Jeremiah’s Grotto in Skull Hill (on their property). “General Gordon on Golgotha – Gordon’s Letters to Sir John Cowell 1883” ISBN 978-1-904459-51-4. Edited by Rosalind Meryon, The Garden Tomb Jerusalem, 2012. Gordon writes, “Here at Skull Hill, close the Slaughter House of Jerusalem was Titus 1 to 2m. The Roman Eagle took the heart of Zion by throat, for close was the breach. Jeremiah wrote Lamentations in the cave. The Ark of the Covenant is there.” page 55. On page 47 Gordon says the Table of Shewbread is also in there, “Golgotha on Hill was Jeremiah’s Grotto. 1. This hill is outside gates near city where many roads pass. 2. From long time back the Slaughter House of City has been there. 3. It is N. of City. Shewbread table is in it.”
At last Ron Wyatt uncovered the clinching evidence that convinced him this was the site of the crucifixion. Four cross holes cut out of the rock, one higher up than the rest on a platform and set back. The other three were in a line lower down and infront. The upper cross hole would have held the ‘featured’ criminal, and we know from the Biblical account that the two cross holes either side held the two thieves when Christ was crucified. In this case, only three of the four cross holes were used.
Ron’s attention was drawn to the cross hole that was higher than the others. If this was the site of the crucifixion of Jesus, then this would undoubtedly be His cross hole. A square-cut stone had been placed in the cross hole, acting as a plug. It had finger grips on each side, and when Ron Wyatt removed it he noticed a large crack in the bedrock, extending from the cross hole. It looked to Ron Wyatt like an earthquake crack, and the Bible does say, in Matthew 27:51, “and the earth did quake, and the rocks rent”.
It became too dangerous to continue digging down the cliff face. So, Ron Wyatt had to dig down at various angles. He soon found himself within a cave system. He worked with a small Arab man who would crawl in through the gaps that were too tiny for Ron Wyatt to easily enter. The conditions were damp, with plenty of dust and little oxygen. Sometimes Ron Wyatt had to squeeze himself through the smallest of holes. One day he asked the man to crawl in through a tiny entrance to a cave, as usual. When he had done so, he rushed out with terror in his eyes, screaming, “What’s in there! What’s in there!” The man hurriedly exited the cave system and refused ever to return.
Excitedly, Ron Wyatt extended the entrance to this chamber and crawled in. He found himself crawling across rocks that were piled up almost to the roof. Growing more and more tired, Ron Wyatt began to move the rocks aside, in order to reveal what was underneath. He uncovered some dry rotted wooden boards which when he moved aside revealed animal skins. Something shiny was under the animal skins. Moving them aside, Ron Wyatt uncovered the Table of Shewbread, from the first temple. Continuing to shift aside more rocks and wood, he then found a stone casing. The lid had cracked and had been moved aside. Ron Wyatt shone his flashlight down through the crack and saw a chest of beaten gold. He knew he was looking at the Ark of the Covenant. Overwhelmed with emotion and suffering from pneumonia Ron Wyatt passed out for 45 minutes in that chamber. It was January 6th 1982, when Ron Wyatt made this amazing discovery – Exactly 3 and a half years after Ron’s left hand pointed to the site and his mouth said, “That’s Jeremiah’s Grotto and the ark of the covenant is in there”. Ron Wyatt tried to photograph the ark with a Polaroid, but the photos turned out foggy. He returned with a colonascope, but again the pictures turned out foggy.
The photos below are various artists impressions and models based on what Ron Wyatt described.
Ron Wyatt noticed a dried, black substance in an earthquake crack in the roof, above the Ark of the Covenant.
Ron Wyatt returned to the cave 3 more times, and since his first visit, to his absolute surprise, the cave had been completely tidied up. Four angels stood before him and he was told that the time is not yet for the world to see this discovery with their own eyes, but the time is coming when the inhabitants of the world will have a universal, religious law enforced upon them. This law will force man to break God’s law, by penalty of disenfranchisement – being unable to buy or sell, (Rev. 13:17). Ron Wyatt was told that some time after this law has been passed, God will allow the tables of stone (The 10 Commandments) and a good clear video of the Ark of the Covenant to be put on public display.
Prediction that the Sunday Law is now imminent: Given on January 17th 2015, Jeff Pippenger predicts that radical Islam is about to suddenly and unexpectedly attack the United States of America, bringing down her economy and leading to the passing of the long awaited National Sunday Law.
Amos 3:7, “Surely the Lord GOD will do nothing, but he revealeth his secret unto his servants the prophets.” I think every one who believes this discovery would agree, for God to reveal the Ark of the Covenant and the Tables of Stone and sample of Christ’s blood is enormous, yet Amos 3:7 says God will do nothing without revealing it through a prophet. So if you believe this discovery and you believe Amos 3:7, which prophet do you think God told He would reveal the Ark, the blood and the Tables of Stone to?
Did you know there was a prophecy that the Ark of the Covenant was hidden in a cave in Jerusalem before the destruction of Jerusalem by Nebuchadnezzar, and that it would be discovered right before the end of the world and the Second Coming of Jesus, and the Tables of Stone taken out and put on public display? The lady who made the prophecy was called Ellen G. White. In 1901 (81 years before Ron Wyatt discovered the Ark of the Covenant) Mrs. White wrote;
“And He [Christ] gave unto Moses, when He had made an end of communing with him upon Mount Sinai, two tables of testimony, tables of stone, written with the finger of God.” (Exodus 31:18.) Nothing written on those tables could be blotted out. The precious record of the law was placed in the ark of the testament and is still there, safely hidden from the human family. But in God’s appointed time He will bring forth these tables of stone to be a testimony to all the world against the disregard of His commandments and against the idolatrous worship of a counterfeit Sabbath.” Manuscript 122, “The Law”, November 23, 1901. {8MR 100.3}
Notice, in the above quote, Ellen White says it is the tables of stone that were given to Moses and placed in the earthly Ark of the Covenant that will be discovered and put on public display, and not the heavenly set. Notice also that the message which accompanies the Tables of Stone is the same message that Ron Wyatt preached, that the 10 Commandments still stand including the fourth commandment – the 7th day (Saturday) Sabbath.
“Among the righteous still in Jerusalem, to whom had been made plain the divine purpose, were some who determined to place beyond the reach of ruthless hands [the Babylonians] the sacred ark containing the tables of stone on which had been traced the precepts of the Decalogue. This they did. With mourning and sadness they secreted the ark in a cave, where it was to be hidden from the people of Israel and Judah because of their sins, and was to be no more restored to them. That sacred ark is yet hidden. It has never been disturbed since it was secreted.” “Prophets and Kings” p453.
Notice how Ellen White said at the time of writing it was still there, and there have never been any reports or even allegations that it has been removed from Jerusalem since 1915 when “Prophets and Kings” was written.
As we mentioned earlier, the blood on the mercy seat was tested. Human cells normally have 46 chromosomes. These are actually 23 pairs of homologous chromosomes.
“…[T]he ark of the covenant of the LORD went before them… to search out a resting place for them.” (Numbers 10:33). One of the tasks was therefore to go before God’s people to lead them to a place which would provide rest… “When ye see the ark of the covenant of the LORD your God… ye shall remove from your place, and go after it.” (Joshua 3:3). So could this message still be relevant today? Where is the final “resting place” God wants to lead His people? The place where they could obtain true freedom and peace at heart? To the foot of the cross. How beautiful, if the purpose of the Ark is to guide us to our resting place, and it travelled all the way to Skull Hill, right at the foot of the cross!” “Journey of the Ark: From Sinai to Golgotha”, page 6, by Rebecca Tourniaire.
