Ark of Yahweh

The origin of the veneration of the ark is due to the fact that Moses consented to put relics alongside the law and thereby form a combined war altar and religious shrine to avoid trying to displace too quickly the fetishes of his followers. 88:2.5

King David gained ark after defeat of Philistines, brought it to Jerusalem, and made the worship of Yahweh official for his kingdom 97:9.14

in each synagoge there is a chest containing sacred writings called the ark or Heikhal (150:8.6,8)
