O.K. i was reading tyhrough this book and they said something about the Ark of the Covenant. So i looked it up on the divtionary the ark of the Covenant is (Jewish Hist.) The oblong chest of acacia wood, overlaid with gold, which supported the mercy seat with its golden cherubs, and occupied the most sacred place in the sanctuary. In it Moses placed the two tables of stone containing the ten commandments. Called also the Ark of the Covenant. Definitions- Ark- a boat or ship held to resmble that in which Noah and his Family where protected by the Flood. Boat/ship-Halo? Noah and crew- Forerunners? the Flood-Flood. Covenant Def.-a written agreement or promise; formal, sloemn and binding agreement; Seal between two or more parties for the performance of some action. Obviously that is the Covenant because they are group of aliens with the action of trying to wipe-out the Human race. Tell me what you think.

The Ark of the Covenate was the vessel in which the israelites carried the 10 Commandments of the Lord. It was carried and cared for by the Levites and the Covenate refers to the pack made between God and His people.


You are either ignorant of religion, or really -blam!- stupid.

Dude, this ain't Evangelion with a biblical reference to everything. (pardon if you're Jewish) If Bungie can advance the plot with this, fine, but I hate it when I see twenty pages of posts from nerds who are wondering who the Forerunners are and all sorts of -blam!- storyline elements. Unlike some people, I just play Halo for the rush. The great story's just a bonus that adds to the game's quality.

I'm not ignorant it's just something i came across and thought it might have something to do with Halo.

It has nothing to do with Halo. In fact, I find such a lack of understanding an abomination.

Make no tie-ins to a religion unless you know more than two things about said religion.
