Covenant[edit]

What is the covenant in the term "ark of the covenant"? The article doesnt say. 2600:1702:5210:EEC0:E6C2:EA1B:3A34:7723 (talk) 03:34, 13 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Good point. The ark is the chest the 10 Commandments were kept in and carried throughout the desert according to Jewish tradition. There are also other details to the name I can add with sourcing. Where in the article do you think that would fit best? Nycarchitecture212 (talk) 01:30, 29 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Reverted unexplained deletion[edit]

@Nycarchitecture212: Your deletion was absolutely unexplained. And it seems part of your crusade against mainstream Bible scholarship. tgeorgescu (talk) 20:59, 28 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

If other users are fine with him deleting my edits and contribution to the article without explanation I will not revert it. The section about where the ark is today according to Jewish tradition was very well sourced, happened to be interesting and what most readers came to the article wanting to read. I refuse to interact with this individual and will leave it to other editors to decide if they want it there. Have a nice day! --Nycarchitecture212 (talk) 01:24, 29 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

You have the privilege of not talking to me at your own talk page. This is not your own talk page. You need to WP:COMMUNICATE, you cannot dodge it. You may ask for an interaction ban if you so wish.

Besides, I did not delete your edits, I have simply undone your unexplained deletion. tgeorgescu (talk) 03:14, 29 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
