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.”

Tomb of Jesus . Actually I never said that "holy sepulchre is the one". I have always maintained that it is the likeliest candidate. Because it not only fulfils the traditional (oral identification)...

[12/1/2024 11:33 AM] Victor Martin: I didn't study all the available materials on the ark discovery, but the verses I usually see brought up as evidence are 1 John 5:8, 1 Timothy 2:6, and Daniel 9:24. I don't remember coming across to Joel 2 / Acts 2. Maybe someone can correct me if I'm wrong. Also, it would be interesting to hear if there are other interpretations of this text (from Joel / Acts 2)

==============================

[5/18/2026 9:20 AM] Steven (Avery) Spencer: Hi Rebekah, yes, I noticed that interesting discussions (like on Gordon) seem to have puffed away. If that is a Telegram "feature" it is disappointing.

I'll be happy to help you look for alternatives.

Note: there is a scholar who wrote a paper on Jerusalem archaeology in the late 1800s. I sent him a private note in Academia.edu asking if he ran into Gordon activity for the Ark of the Covenant.

One interesting thing, a preterist, Edward Stevens, has been quite warm to the Ron Wyatt discoveries. A bit of a nice surprise.

Good getting rid of auto-delete! What a wacky setting.
Thank you Jesus!

Happy to help in any way possible. I understand the concern from blow-back.

I've moved to a non-sympathetic view of the Greater Israel and Christian Zionism standard evangelical fare. So a number of people, messianics, Trumpkins, evangelicals, have grumbled, called me names, etc :) . It is a hard issue to avoid, although it really should not affect Ron Wyatt Archaeology.

Hi Steve, from time to time, I come across your interactions on Academia.edu, but not on this one. Please let me know if any relevant information comes out of your research! On my side, I got confirmation from the British Library that the manuscript Add MS 51297 contains Gordon's Jerusalem and Jaffa correspondence from 1883, which appears highly relevant to the subject. Unfortunately, the only way I can check it is by travelling to London. Or, eventually, finding some freelancer there!

[11/29/2024 12:34 PM] Steven (Avery) Spencer: Before I knew any of this, around 1990, I mentioned the blood of Jesus on a forum with Messianics and Anti-Missionaries,

Moshe Shulman, orthodox anti-mish, mocked the idea “and sure, it landed on the mercy seat … lol, guffaw”

A few years later, I learned he was right on that point!

They know. :)

Blessings and grace in Jesus,
Steven
