The '''Ark of the Covenant''' (Hebrew: ארון הבּרית, 'ărōn ha-berīth) in the [[Old Testament]] of the [[Bible]] is the chest the Hebrews used to contain the tablets of the Law given by God to [[Moses]]. The Ark was the centerpiece of the Temple in Jerusalem, residing in the Holy of Holies, and seen just once a year by the high priest on Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement.
