Shalom,
I have thought about this for years, but I know very little about the Vatican.

As the Almighty preserved the items of the Temple in Babylon after the destruction of the 1st Temple, and returned them to Israel at the appropriate time, do you think, possibly, that those items taken by Rome may also be preserved and in the possession of the Vatican until the appropriate time, when YHVH shall cause their return to Israel?

Thank you for all your efforts.

    There is much speculation on the matter. There is a chance, but it also might be that the instruments were melted down at some stage.

    What a fantastic question. That would be surreal! Well have to wait and see if that comes to fruition! Sho.!
