The ark, or altar, at the Temple's centre |
Back
 The ark, or altar, which stood at the Temple’s centre contained a copy of the Bible. It also contained a secret compartment within which several hundreds of pages of records were stored. This secret compartment was discovered in 1990. It stood between four pillars: Faith, Hope, Love and Charity. Alms for the poor were placed on tables at the foot of the pillars. |
