On examination of the Ark of the Covenant in terms of modern physics, the

of fire, and luminous clouds in the sky would make it seem that the secret
of the electro-static machine was obtained from extraterrestrials; it was used
as a method of terrorizing the people and diverting their worship from idols
to higher ideals and ;>hilosphies.
