(The Most Important News)—Did you know that two life-sized replicas of the Tabernacle have already been constructed in Israel?  One is in the Timna Valley near Israel’s southernmost city of Eilat, and the other one is located at the Eshel-Hashomron Hotel near the city of Ariel in Samaria.  Both of these structures already contain replicas of the Ark of the Covenant.  Of course those that created both of these life-sized models of the Tabernacle insist that they are only to be used for educational purposes.  But could that change at some point in the future?  After all, once the Ark of the Covenant is revealed to the world, it will need a home.

After the original Temple was destroyed in 586 BC, the Ark of the Covenant entirely disappeared from the history books.

There is no historical record that says that the Babylonians captured the Ark, and no Babylonian leader ever claimed that it was in Babylon. But the Ark of the Covenant was not present in the Second Temple either, and so that indicates that those that built it also did not know where it was located.

So what in the world happened to it? Personally, I have become convinced that it is still in a chamber under the city of Jerusalem where it was hidden prior to the Babylonian invasion.

On the official website of the Temple Institute, it is clearly stated that the Temple Institute knows exactly where this hidden chamber is located…

While some claim to have evidence that the ark is in Ethiopia, and of course, moviegoers were treated to a fanciful version of the story in “Raiders of the Lost Ark,” in reality, the expression “lost” ark is not an accurate description for the Jewish people’s point of view – because we have always known exactly where it is. So the Ark is “Hidden,” and hidden quite well, but it is not lost.

Tradition records that even as King Solomon built the First Temple, he already knew, through Divine inspiration, that eventually it would be destroyed. Thus Solomon, the wisest of all men, oversaw the construction of a vast system of labyrinths, mazes, chambers and corridors underneath the Temple Mount complex. He commanded that a special place be built in the bowels of the earth, where the sacred vessels of the Temple could be hidden in case of approaching danger. Midrashic tradition teaches that King Josiah of Israel, who lived about forty years before the destruction of the First Temple, commanded the Levites to hide the Ark, together with the original menorah and several other items*, in this secret hiding place which Solomon had prepared.

This location is recorded in our sources, and today, there are those who know exactly where this chamber is. And we know that the ark is still there, undisturbed, and waiting for the day when it will be revealed. An attempt was made some few years ago to excavate towards the direction of this chamber. This resulted in widespread Moslem unrest and rioting. They stand a great deal to lose if the Ark is revealed – for it will prove to the whole world that there really was a Holy Temple, and thus, that the Jews really do have a claim to the Temple Mount. (The official position of the Islamic Wakf, the body that governs over the Temple Mount, is that there never was a Holy Temple, and that the Jews have no rights whatsoever to the place).

There are lots of other “experts” that have all sorts of bizarre theories about where the Ark of the Covenant could be today.

But for any of those theories to be true, the Temple Institute has to be lying.

Personally, I believe that they are telling us the truth.

In 1982, Rabbi Yehuda Getz reportedly came “within 40 feet” of this secret chamber…

Rabbi Getz believes that in 1982 he was very close, within 40 feet, to finding the cave in which the Ark resides. He was conducting a search in an old tunnel that had been filled with the debris of centuries, which runs perpendicular to the Western Wall and under the Temple Mount. However, when the Moslems discovered that there were diggings being conducted under the Dome of the Rock, they threatened a general riot and the diggings were stopped. The rabbi explains that, for the sake of maintaining peace with their Moslem neighbors, the Israelis had to reseal the entrance to the tunnel, and it remains blocked up to this day.

This is almost certainly the episode that the Temple Institute is referring to on their website.

In 1982, it wasn’t time for the Ark to be revealed. But I believe that the time when it will be revealed is getting very close.

Interestingly, there is an ancient document called “Treatise of the Vessels” that claims that the Ark of the Covenant will not be revealed “until the day of the coming of the Messiah”…

One text called the “Treatise of the Vessels” says that the ark “shall not be revealed until the day of the coming of the Messiah son of David….”

Is this the generation that will see the return of the Lord Jesus? Yes.

And as I detailed in my book entitled “Chaos”, I am convinced that this is also the generation when the discovery of the Ark of the Covenant will shock the entire globe.

Right now, two life-sized replicas of the Tabernacle in which the Ark of the Covenant once stood currently exist in the land of Israel.  But both of them are “for educational purposes and are not functional”…

The holy Tabernacle housing the presence of the God of Israel, once carried by the ancient Israelites, no longer exists. However, since the Jews have reclaimed their ancestral homeland in Israel, they reconstructed two replicas of this legendary religious structure. It should be noted: These replicas are displayed for educational purposes and are not functional.

The replica of the Tabernacle that is most well-known is in southern Israel close to the city of Eilat…

The Timna Tabernacle, first displayed in Switzerland during the 1990s before returning to Israel, now stands in the scenic Timna Valley in the southern Israeli desert near Eilat, adjacent to ancient copper mines often associated with King Solomon. Set against the desert backdrop, it offers an accurate and authentic reconstruction reminiscent of the Israelites’ Tabernacle during their desert journey, matching the dimensions and features described in the Bible. Inside, visitors can explore exact replicas of various elements, including the altar, copper sink, table of showbread, menorah (the seven branches candelabrum), the small altar for incense, ark of the covenant, priestly vestments, and more.

The other one is located at the Eshel-Hashomron Hotel in the city of Ariel…

The “Biblical Park” at the Eshel-Hashomron Hotel in Ariel, Samaria, inaugurated in 2014, showcases a life-sized replica of the Tabernacle of Shiloh from the biblical period of Judges, distinguishing it from the one at Timna. The garden features interactive stations, such as a miniature Jordan River. Owned by the only Jewish hotel in Samaria, this replica offers insight into the Tabernacle during the settled period of the Israelites under the Judges, particularly during Samuel’s time.

Tourists who are interested in delving deeper are encouraged to visit the ancient Shilo archaeological site before or after exploring the Tabernacle at Eshel-Hashomron. At Shilo, archaeologists have discovered what they believe to be the location of the Tabernacle during Samuel’s childhood.

When the Ark of the Covenant is finally revealed to the world, could it go into one of these models of the Tabernacle? To a lot of people, that would seem to make sense. But I don’t think that this is likely to happen.

When the Ark of the Covenant is finally revealed, it will instantly become a major target for terrorists. So I think that it is far more likely that the Ark will be placed in an extremely secure facility that is deep underground.

Of course many would argue that it is already in an extremely secure place since nobody has been able to get to the chamber where it is located all these years.

We live at such an exciting time.  Major archaeological discoveries are constantly being made, but since they aren’t getting that much attention a lot of people don’t know about them. For example, a secret tomb that contains “at least 12 human skeletons” was just discovered under the ancient city of Petra…

At the heart of the ancient city of Petra, Jordan, carved into pink sandstone cliffs, lies an elaborate monument known as the Khaznah, or the Treasury.

And buried beneath that edifice, archaeologists recently discovered, is a tomb with at least 12 human skeletons and artifacts that are estimated to be at least 2,000 years old.

Archaeologists led by Dr. Pearce Paul Creasman, executive director of the American Center of Research, unearthed the ancient tomb. The expedition was studying the Treasury after years of speculation that two tombs found below the left side of the monument in 2003 weren’t the only secret underground chambers. But that theory had not been confirmed — until now.

That was a mind-blowing discovery, but hardly anyone has heard about it. And more mind-blowing discoveries are coming.

I believe that the Ark of the Covenant will be publicly revealed in our generation. When it happens, it will be the greatest archaeological bombshell of all time.

So let’s watch for any mention of the Ark in the news, because they won’t be able to keep a lid on where it is currently located for too much longer.

Michael’s new book entitled “Why” is available in paperback and for the Kindle on Amazon.com, and you can subscribe to his Substack newsletter at michaeltsnyder.substack.com.

Those that are preparing for such a scenario are known as “preppers”, and “prepping” has become increasingly popular in recent years.

For example, the Daily Mail just published a story on a 38-year-old prepper named Rowan Mackenzie that has become extremely popular on social media…

A doomsday prepper, who has built a bunker, has revealed how she spent $75,000 to prepare for a nuclear disaster amid ongoing wars across the world and the soaring cost of the living crisis.

Rowan Mackenzie, 38, became a became a social media phenomenon after revealing she’s been prepping her home for 12 years because of fear of an emergency and has upped the ante, spending a whopping $75,000 on supplies as a result of the intensification of issues in the world – including the war between Israel and Palestine.

She has been able to accumulate so much because she did a little bit at a time for many years.

If you haven’t been preparing like she has, you have a lot of catching up to do, and it isn’t going to be easy.

I know that it can seem a bit overwhelming if you are just getting started, and so let me give you 4 key areas to focus on as you prepare for the chaotic events of 2024 and beyond…

#1 Food

Without enough food, you will not make it for long. If you can hunt or forage for edible plants that will help, but that will only take you so far.

Anyone that has watched “Alone” knows exactly what I am talking about.

When things really start hitting the fan, most Americans will get very hungry very rapidly. In fact, it is being reported that 18 percent of Americans are already not getting enough food to eat…

According to consumer data firm Dunnhumby, one-third of households are skipping meals or reducing their portion sizes to save money.

Researchers found that 18 percent of the survey’s 2,000 participants noted they weren’t getting enough food to eat.

Furthermore, 31 percent of households have reduced their portion sizes due to empty pantries as a result of rising grocery store prices.

I recommend storing food that you really like to eat and that will last for a very long time.

If you like beef, that is going to be a challenge, because beef now costs a lot more than it once did…

Being a carnivore has never been so expensive. According to the USDA, beef prices soared to another record high this week, and are expected to face a 100% increase next month compared to the same period a year ago. Steaks will likely be out of the dinner table of many Americans in the coming months as shortages already started leaving grocery shelves empty. Even cheap meats like ground beef are about to shoot up in price due to the lowest supply in decades, the Department said.

The nation’s shrinking cattle herd combined with surging input costs at U.S. farms and ranches have pushed wholesale meat costs to over $8 per pound, official data shows. Analysts predict that the figure could jump above the $ 10 mark in December due to the seasonal spike in demand. As a comparison, beef costs in 2022 were hoovering around the ten-year average of $5 per pound. The rapid price appreciation means that you will have to pay double what you paid a year ago to bring your favorite cut home this winter.

And thanks to the bird flu, chicken and turkey are going up in price too…

An additional 1.2 million chickens will be slaughtered to prevent the spread of the bird flu after the virus was confirmed on an Iowa egg farm in the second massive case this week.

The Iowa Department of Agriculture and Land Stewardship announced the latest bird flu infection at a farm in Taylor County Friday, and Iowa’s governor immediately declared a disaster there to make sure the state has the resources to respond quickly.

The Iowa case is just the latest one in the outbreak that began early last year and has prompted officials to kill a total of nearly 63 million birds. Earlier this week, 1 million chickens were killed on a Minnesota egg farm.

Ultimately, you will want to store up enough food for yourself and for everyone that will be depending upon you for as long as you plan to stay alive.

#2 Water

The good news is that water is not expensive.

But when it stops coming out of your taps, what will you do?

I do believe in storing up bottled water.  But you can only store it for so long, and no matter how large your property is you can never store enough.

Each one of us uses a tremendous amount of water every day, and in a survival situation you can reduce that amount quite a bit.

But you will never be able to store enough for a long-term survival scenario. So access to fresh water is key. You need to have a plan for gathering fresh water, filtering fresh water, and boiling fresh water.

#3 Shelter

Most of you already have somewhere to live. That’s great. But will it be suitable for a long-term survival scenario?

If not, you either need to move or you need to have a location to “bug out” to when things get really hairy.

If you are considering relocating, I give my thoughts on all 50 states in my new book.  But thanks to absurdly high housing prices and rapidly rising interest rates, it will now cost you far more to relocate than it would have a few years ago.

And no matter how great your location is right now, you will need to be prepared to leave if for some reason staying at your current home becomes untenable at some point.

#4 Energy

A great survival home won’t do you much good if you can’t heat it during the winter. And you are going to need to be able to cook your food and boil any water that you collect. So you have got to have a plan for energy.

If you have rigged your entire home so that it can be fully powered by solar energy, that is great. But that is not feasible in all areas of the country.

A gas-powered generator is always helpful, but what will you do when you can’t get any more gas? Whenever the lights go out, we are reminded of what a world without power would look like.

Personally, I recommend having more than one source of energy, because that way you will not be in a desperate situation if the one source you are depending upon ends up failing.

Of course everything that I have discussed above needs to be protected. If someone comes in and tries to take all the stuff that you have stored up, what would you do?

That is another question that you need to consider, because when things get really crazy out there a lot of people will suddenly become very uncivilized.

Sound off about this on the Late Prepper Substack.

I don’t know if there really is any correlation between Islam in general or certain Muslim nations in particular to the end times prophecies from the Bible. It’s one of many theories that are floating out there today and have been floating out there for decades. But I do believe we need to have as much information as possible presented to us, which is why I decided to publish this article after passing on it the last couple of days. Take from it what you will and be discerning. Above all else, be  prayerful as we navigate these tumultuous times. Here’s Snyder…

I am going to share something with you that social media is really buzzing about right now.  If you go to Revelation chapter 6, you will find that the colors of the horses that the four horsemen of the apocalypse are riding are white, red, black and “pale”.  But the ancient Greek word that is translated as “pale” in Revelation 6:8 is more commonly translated as “green”.  In fact, the other three times that “khlōros” is found in the New Testament it is translated as “green” in the King James Version.  So if the most accurate translation of “khlōros” in Revelation 6:8 is “green”, that would give us horses that are white, red, black and “green”, and it turns out that those are the exact same four colors that we find on the Palestinian flag.

Of course I do not believe that Revelation chapter 6 is talking about the Palestinians. But I do think that this is a really weird “coincidence”.

And it has also been pointed out that these four colors are used on flags throughout the entire Islamic world.

That is pretty amazing.

And it really does appear that an apocalyptic war is about to fully erupt in the Middle East.

Even though they claim that they want a ceasefire, on Tuesday afternoon Hamas terrorists launched another “massive rocket barrage” at cities all over Israel…

Hamas launched a massive rocket barrage on Tuesday afternoon, injuring at least five Israelis, emergency services said.

Israelis were wounded in separate incidents in Holon, Tel Aviv, Kfar Saba, Be’er Yaakov, and Yavne while the barrage sent more than one million running for cover. All of the wounded were said to be lightly injured.

And a team of Hamas scuba divers was intercepted as they were trying to sneak into Israeli territory…

Hamas scuba divers attempting to sneak into Israel have been killed, according to the Israel Defense Forces.

The news comes as the group launched a massive rocket attack from the Gaza Strip.

The IDF did not say how many divers were attempting to come ashore but local media reported that at least four terrorists were killed.

They just won’t stop, and that is why the Israelis have no choice but to go in and take them out.

It is being reported that the IDF has been dropping more leaflets warning Palestinian civilians to flee from the war zone while they still can…

The Israeli military has told Palestinian civilians living in north Gaza that if they don’t evacuate to the south, they will be considered “an accomplice in a terrorist organization.”

The warning was made in threatening leaflets dropped by Israeli drones over the weekend. “Urgent warning, to residents of Gaza. Your presence north of Wadi Gaza puts your life in danger. Whoever chooses not to leave north Gaza to the south of Wadi Gaza might be identified as an accomplice in a terrorist organization,” the leaflets said, according to Reuters.

This would seem to indicate that a full-blown invasion is very close. But it hasn’t happened yet.

The Biden administration has been pressuring Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for more time for hostage negotiations, and a handful of hostages have been released.

Of course Hamas would be happy to keep releasing two hostages every few days for the next year if that would delay a full-blown invasion by the Israelis.

But Netanyahu is not going to be able to delay this invasion indefinitely, because military officials and members of his own coalition are becoming quite impatient with him…

Netanyahu has drawn the ire of Israel’s military chiefs by delaying the invasion of Gaza to eliminate Hamas, with western allies in the EU pushing for a ceasefire.

Israel’s Prime Minister clashed with leading figures in the country’s defence forces over his decision to delay the incursion, which his military chiefs are said to be eager to start, the Telegraph reports.

Meanwhile some members states within the European Union have pushed for a ceasefire in the war between Israel and terror group Hamas in order to deliver more humanitarian aid to Palestinian civilians in the besieged Gaza Strip.

For now, the IDF has been relentlessly pummeling the Gaza Strip in anticipation of the coming invasion.

It is being reported that the Israelis conducted a total of 400 airstrikes on Tuesday alone…

Israel said Tuesday it had launched 400 airstrikes over the past day, killing Hamas commanders, hitting militants as they were preparing to launch rockets into Israel and striking command centers and a Hamas tunnel shaft. Israel reported 320 strikes the day before.

But airstrikes will never be enough to eliminate the threat of Hamas.

In order to do that, Israeli troops must go into Gaza and dig the terrorists out of their tunnels. And that is precisely what the Israeli population is demanding.

It would be difficult to overstate the rage that the Israeli population is feeling right now.  If similar atrocities had been committed in this country, the American people would be feeling the same way.

Israeli government spokesman Eylon Levy says that he will never forget the video footage of the atrocities that he has personally viewed…

‘Seared in my mind are the bodies. Burned bodies, beheaded bodies mangled, bloodied remains of bodies. Bodies in open fields, bodies in blood covered bedrooms, bodies dragged out of cars, bodies lining the side of the road, bodies in body bags bodies in rows upon rows of body bags – so many that Zaka rescue teams went through four years of equipment in three days,’ he said.

He went on to describe the bodies of infants burned ‘to a crisp’, so badly that he thought they were ‘lumps of coal’.

‘Babies’ bodies. We see the body of a baby shot in the head. Burned bodies of babies. I mean burned to a crisp. Burned babies plural.

‘I mean so badly burned that I had to ask the video to be stopped so that it could be explained to me that the piece of coal on the screen was the burnt corpse of an Israeli baby,’ he says.

There is no going back to the way that things were before.

The IDF will be going into Gaza, and the goal will be to completely and utterly destroy Hamas.

In response, Hezbollah and other Iranians proxies will enter the fight, and then we will see the apocalyptic war in the Middle East that I have been warning my readers about.

We really are living in a time of “wars and rumors of wars”, and the death and destruction that this war will cause will greatly shock the entire world.

Instead, many of them are obsessing over the relatively meaningless dramas that our corporate news outlets are constantly pushing.  Meanwhile, the globalists are achieving their goals at lightning speed, and there is hardly any resistance at all.  The following are 8 signs that the futuristic control freak agenda of the globalists is rapidly moving forward…

#1 Starting in September, the EU will “mandate” that all member states offer a “digital identity wallet” to all of their citizens and businesses…

The European Union will mandate digital identity under eIDAS 2.0, which will go into effect in September 2023 and ensure all Member States offer a digital identity wallet (DIW) to citizens and businesses. According to the European Commission, “At least 80% of citizens should be able to use a digital ID solution to access key public services by 2030.”

#2 A system of “digital fingerprints” for Americans has suddenly become Barack Obama’s biggest issue…

Former President Barack Obama suggested in a new interview the development of “digital fingerprints” to combat misinformation and distinguish between true and misleading news for consumers.

Obama sat down with his former White House senior adviser David Axelrod for a conversation on the latter’s podcast, “The Axe Files,” on CNN Audio. During the interview, Axelrod noted he’s seen “misinformation, disinformation, [and] deepfakes” targeting Obama.

#3 A UN policy brief that you can find right here is proposing a global system of digital identification that is linked to our bank accounts…

Digital IDs linked with bank or mobile money accounts can improve the delivery of social protection coverage and serve to better reach eligible beneficiaries. Digital technologies may help to reduce leakage, errors and costs in the design of social protection programmes.

#4 The World Health Organization has adopted “the European Union (EU) system of digital COVID-19 certification” and plans to transform it into a “global system”…

In June 2023, WHO will take up the European Union (EU) system of digital COVID-19 certification to establish a global system that will help facilitate global mobility and protect citizens across the world from on-going and future health threats, including pandemics. This is the first building block of the WHO Global Digital Health Certification Network (GDHCN) that will develop a wide range of digital products to deliver better health for all.

“Building on the EU’s highly successful digital certification network, WHO aims to offer all WHO Member States access to an open-source digital health tool, which is based on the principles of equity, innovation, transparency and data protection and privacy,” said Dr Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, WHO Director-General. “New digital health products in development aim to help people everywhere receive quality health services quickly and more effectively”.

#5 Federal agencies in the United States have been purchasing massive amounts of information about U.S. citizens from data brokers, and we are being warned that such information could potentially be used for “blackmail, stalking, harassment and public shaming”…

Federal agencies are secretly accumulating mountains of data that could be used for “blackmail, stalking, harassment and public shaming” of American citizens.

That allegation doesn’t come from a pink-haired civil-liberties fanatic — it’s in a new report for the nation’s chief spymaster, Avril Haines.

#6 It has been revealed that the Pentagon has been using very creepy online tools in order to “covertly track, locate and identify anyone expressing dissent or even dissatisfaction with the actions of the U.S. military and its leadership”…

In a shocking report published by The Intercept on June 17, details have emerged of a U.S. national security surveillance strategy to covertly track, locate and identify anyone expressing dissent or even dissatisfaction with the actions of the U.S. military and its leadership.

The measures, undertaken by the Army Protective Services Battalion, fall under their remit of safeguarding top generals from “assassination, kidnapping, injury or embarrassment.”

#7 As I discussed yesterday, the UN has developed a global fact-checking system known as “iVerify” in conjunction with big tech companies and Soros-funded organizations.  The goal is to be able to police “disinformation” and “hate speech” all over the planet…

The United Nations has unveiled an “automated” fact-checking service to counter so-called disinformation and hate speech on the internet in a project partnered with Big-Tech and Soros-funded organisations.

In response to what they brand as “online information pollution”, which they claim is a “global challenge”, the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) has launched its iVerify platform to counter alleged disinformation and hate speech online.

#8 The IMF is publicly admitting that it is constructing “a global CBDC platform” for all of the national central bank digital currencies that will soon be rolled out…

During a presentation at a conference in Morocco, Kristalina Georgievahe the managing director of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) announced that the global body is “working hard on the concept of a global CBDC platform.”

Georgieva declared that Central Bank Digital Currencies need to be interoperable between countries, noting “If we are to be successful, CBDCs could not be fragmented national propositions.”

“To have transactions more efficient and fairer, we need systems that connect countries,” Georgieva continued, adding “In other words, we need interoperability.”

If you can read through that entire list without becoming extremely alarmed, I don’t know if there is any hope for you.

The globalists are building a worldwide digital control grid which would potentially give them unprecedented power over the lives of every man, woman and child on the entire planet.

Under such a system, if you insist on being a rebel, your access to the digital system could be revoked completely.

What would you do then?

How would you survive if you could not buy, sell, get a job or open a bank account?

The extremely advanced technology that we possess today has allowed us to do a lot of really good things, but it also has the potential to be used to impose tyranny on a global scale.

We must resist these changes that the globalists are trying to impose on us.

Unfortunately, most Americans are not even talking about these changes, and that is because the mainstream media is telling them to focus on other things.
