Abstract
Students of Chronicles have long been perplexed by the extensive treatment of the ark in the Chronicler's narratives, which is surprising, given the general assumption that the ark was not part of the paraphernalia of the postexilic temple. Following a brief review of the ark's depiction in Chronicles and earlier views regarding the implications of the ark's absence for the Chronicler, the present essay proffers a new approach to the place of the ark in the Chronicler's Weltanschauung.
