Hello, I'm a returning member (was on the old board from the late 90s until it closed), and I'm very glad to see this back up again!
I'm married to my lovely wife, and have 2 kids.
I've been researching the Ark of the Covenant since 1987, especially with regards to its disposition in antiquity.
Do you hold with Rabbi Getz
et al about the likely location under the temple mount?
