Elijah, the Prophet - Official Website of Imam Mahdi Arrival

Before the destruction of the first Temple the Priests and the Prophet Yirmeyahu (Jeremiah) and three of his associates hid the holiest
vessels of the Temple. Two non-Biblical sources, 2 Maccabees and Parilipomena of Yirmeyahu, stated that the sacred objects from
the Temple were hidden by Yirmeyahu before the destruction of Jerusalem by Nebuchadnezzar. The prophet Yirmeyahu was given
explicit instructions by HaShem to go and acquire the antique priestly pot and hide it (Yirmeyahu 19:1, 43:9,10), because of the sins
of King Shlomo (Solomon) marriage Tahpanhes. The message was that Mashiach's Kingdom will be set on this corner -stone and
destroying the evil system that has existed since Babylon.
For hundreds of years, legends, stories speculations have been heard from scholars, religious leaders, archeologists andeven
Hollywood; asking where are the treasures of the Temple hidden? For decades great interest has existed among different individuals,
to search again for the Ark of the Covenant which contains the two tablets of the testimony (Ten Commandments), Rod of Aaron, and
the Earthen Vessel of Manna.
The establishment of the Urim and Thummim
In the days of King Messiah, when his kingdom is established and all Israel are gathered into it, the descent
of all of them will be confirmed by him through the Holy Spirit which will rest upon him, as it is written,
And he shall sit as a refiner and purifier of silver, and he shall purify the sons of Levi, and purge them as
gold and silver ( Mal. 3:3), And he will first purify the Children of Levi and will say: “This is of priestly
descent, and this is of Levitic descent.” And he will reject those who are not descended of Israel, as it
written, And the Tirshatha [governor] said to them that they should not eat the most holy things till there
stood up a priest with Urim and Thummin (Ezra 2:63) From this you learn that the presumption of
descent will be confirmed, and those with established descent will be announced by the Holy Spirit. And he
will establish the descent not from Israel [in general] but from each tribe and tribe. For he will announce
that this one is from such and such a tribe, and this one from such and such a tribe…. (Maimonides, Yad
haHazaqa, Shoftim, Hilkhot M’lakhim 11-12)
