If Solomon was a wise man, why was he an apostate?
If Solomon built the Holy Temple, why did he allow false gods to be worshipped there?
Isn't there something very odd about Solomon?
I've been thinking a lot about a conspiracy theory put forward in a book called "The Armageddon Conspiracy." It deals with a modern Messiah, an encounter with the Ark of the Covenant, and a perfect recreation of Solomon's Temple.
It's a very weird book, and quite disturbing. I always thought that the Ark of the Covenant contained the Ten Commandments, but according to this book, it was carried into battle by the Israelites, had miraculous powers, and might very well be said to be a vessel in which the Israelites carried their God. (Only the High Priest of the Temple was allowed to approach the Ark, and he reputedly communicated with God when he addressed the Ark.) Is all of this true?
