Footnotes
The Chronicler explicitly notes only the tablets are in the Ark, omitting the jar of manna and Aaron's staff (cf. Heb. 9:4 — a possible alternative tradition or symbolic theological summary). For the Chronicler, the Ark is fundamentally the אֲרוֹן הַבְּרִית (aron ha'brit) — the chest of the covenant — and its contents are Torah: the covenant words spoken at Horev. The Temple is built around the Word. FOG retains 'Mitzrayim' and 'Horev'; FOG Message uses 'Egypt' and 'Horeb' but emphasises Yahweh as active deliverer — 'when He brought them out.'
