ECT The first resurrection

[elohiym]

The priests performed sacrifices on the altar and maintained the Temple, Jesus did neither.

The priests could not comply with the law lacking the Ark.
Jesus pronounced lepers clean, as well as other acts, as part of His ministry as a High Priest of the order of Melchizedek.

What does the ark have to do with anything?

Atonement under the law. They had to sprinkle blood on a mercy seat that wasn't there, so it couldn't be done. That's just a fact, Jamie.

Is that what Jesus said or is that what you say without any validation?

I have to prove to you that blood had to sprinkled on the mercy of the Ark to comply with the Mosaic law?

I suspect the ark disappeared before 586 BCE. The ark was temporary anyway.

"Then it shall come to pass, when you are multiplied and increased in the land in those days," says the LORD, "that they will say no more, ‘The ark of the covenant of the LORD.’ It shall not come to mind, nor shall they remember it, nor shall they visit it, nor shall it be made anymore." (Jeremiah 3:16)​
