The pictorial history of Palestine and the Holy land including a complete history of the Jews. the sanctuary were closely similar, if not identical, with those of the most holy placeof the tabernacle, —with the omission, in the latter, of the superfluities and idolatrous appen-dages which the former offered. While, therefore, the sculptures of Egypt, in which some ofthese ancient sanctuaries are represented, afford the only discoveral)le materials for makingout the outline forms and some of the details of the ark, and that which belonged to it, weshall at the same time become aware of the simplifying and expurgatory process by whichthese things were fitted for the use of the Hebrew people.
