Purchased for Pastor, friends, --Jewish and Christian, as well as one for myself. As Biblical scholars, they were impressed with this 18th Century Biblical interpretation of the Ark of the Covenant. They didn't just like their gift, they used theirs to teach. The replica items inside relate well to the history of the Ark add to the teaching experience. The remaining space inside allow for those special additions to be securely stored. Thanks for the gifts that keep on giving!
